you may be right as ive just been messing in the garage with it and the top of the shock seems to vibrate when it creaks. do i need to replace or grease up

A new shock bushing sorted out a similar problem for me - should be less than a tenner I'd have thought.

try greasing the QR skewer in the back wheel.

sounds like BS but I can assure you it worked on a very creaky Turner.
