So was driving on friday and it felt like i had low tyre pressures as steering felt a bit vague also when turning it felt like the weight was shifting as though the tyres were low.

Checked pressures and all were fine. As i was getting home i had the window down and could hear a flapping as though i was driving on a flat. I think I've narrowed it down to driver's rear.

So far I've checked pressures and made sure all wheel bolts are tight (schoolboy errors avoided). I checked the fronts before i narrowed it down by jacking the front up and running it in gear.

Any tips on troubleshooting the back-end?

Is the beam quiet? No squeeks or knocks? Check for camber too.
If all looks well, get a garage to inspect the mounts.
You sure it ain't just s**t tires on a slippery road?

so i'm suitable perplexed. jacked up the back end and thought i'd swap the wheels over to see if a) the noise switched sides or it didn't. well c) happened.. the noise disappeared.. result, i think.
