    Try tightening the bolts in the boot on struts to correct torque at the rear mounts.
    Are your tyres fowling anything?
    are springs correct way up?
    Could it be an exhaust noise?
    You need to jack it up and have a gawk could be loads of things.

    If something rubbing look for shiny or suspiciously clean.
    My Joms make no noise at all

    anti roll bar bushes?
    rear upper ball joint can also do squicking.
    try to inject in it a bit of light oil, see does it help.
    other bushes also could be your problem.
    only real way is to get under with a bar and see your self as this would be only guessing
