Default Creaking from left rear

2007 XK Cabriolet 93,500 miles. Hearing creaking from left rear when driving slowly and when exiting vehicle. Have not previously replaced shocks or rear suspension components. Guess I'm due. Any idea what price I may be looking at? Is this something I should only entrust to authorized dealer?

I had the same issue. I compressed the rear spring a little and sprayed some lithium grease on the spring perch rubber doughnut. Creek went away.

I had some creaking and soft steering feeling. Turned out it was a loose nut on the control ball joint, tightened it back up and now its all good
