:dead: I did a search but came up with nothing. So… When ever I turn my wheel, my whole front end starts making a creeking noise. It also makes the same noise when hitting bumps… sounds like my shock is making the noice, but anyone ?! thanks ---

Go have your CV boot checked… it might be damaged and needs replacement. ---

my car had the same problem but it turned out to be lower ball joints. just make a little slit in the boot and spray lubracant in and it should stop temporarily then you will know for sure lower ball joints are cheap to buy.
