Hi all,
I have been searching for an answer, sifting through threads but have not come across anything similar.
I have an '06 hatch and on occasion - when i am driving my font end creaks over any bump - the bigger the louder it gets. It sounds like it is coming from the front. If I roll my window down it doesn't necessarily get louder which is puzzling to me.
It can last all drive. Then when I park and it sits - it may not be there the next time I drive it - and may stay away for days or even weeks.
My questions are A) anyone know what it could be
B) if it is bushings, or motor mounts, bearings etc - wouldn't it always be consistently there?
The last thing I want to do is bring it in for service and replace a bunch of parts and be out of a lot of money (warranty ended) and have the damn creak still be there.
BTW my car only has 38,xxx kms on it (bought it second hand a year ago with 18k on it)
TIA
