Hi,  Hope somebody can give me some suggestions on places to look for remedying a creaky.

I have a Omega 524 (end bathroom and circular shower cubicle) and when walking towards the back of the van there is a creak that seems to be coming from the outside shower wall (in the body of the van). I'm not sure whether it's the floor or one of the fixings rubbing against the wall or ceiling.

I have "packed" the top of the shower cubicle with small pieces of cardboard to take it away from the ceiling but this hasn't worked.

I'm positive it's nothing serious but it is starting to irritate me. Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Could the floor be delaminating in that area, or possibly the plastic edge of the shower tray moving against the wall?  I would check your silicone seal to see if it has come away.  I had that in our van and had to reseal around the shower tray.

the only silly question is the one you do not ask.
