possible spannering dimness
just popped new stem on and noticed I'd managed to leave an imprint :shock: of the old stem on the bars where I'd tightened them..... bin the bars?
also noticed a creak develop from the bars/shifters/not sure but control area when yomping up hills recently - but that could be anything

No don't bin your bars! This is quite normal. You need to avoid overtightening this, but an imprint is not reason to think there's anything wrong.
There are many threads on here about creaks and finding them - try having a browse for ideas.0 -
ah - that's good to know
never managed it before - surprised me as was only using an allen key by hand

If the bars are carbon I'd be careful, if they're alloy they're most probably OK!FTT
