CREAK!

Hey guys

Anyone know, that when under load, i.e. turning slowly onto my drive, I get a creak from the front end? I have leaned against the front offside wheel and pressed against it and there is a slight creak from this?

Any suggestions before I go and spend some time in a garage diagnosing faults and stuff?

Could it be a dry joint? Anything to be majorly concerned about?

For the record, I have not taken her off road so to speak, only up a pot holed forest track, but the creak was there before then. Nothing happens going over bumps ala speed bumps but it's just slightly annoying.

Cheers for the input, I look forward to hearing from you!

Mine creaked when parking because the swivel bearings (kingpin bearings) were as rusty as old iron.
New ones cured it.

Won't hurt to change them, they are always gone. (unless you fitted them yesterday )

Spring not seated right
