Makes sense... the forces got transferred to the weakest point now, the middle... It's quite minor creaking... an odd creak here and there... but can't identify exactly where it comes from. I am quite sensitive to these odd noises, esp if I can still hear it over the engine and radio.... time for new exhaust ??!!
