I noticed a creeking sound coming from my drivers front side. Has anyone had this problem before or might know what it is?<IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">

 

when does it make this noise? over bumps, when youre turning the wheels etc?

 

WHEN I AM TURNING THE WHEEL.. ITS IN MY RIGHT LEFT SIDE.

 

I HAVE A 05 AVEO AND I TOOK IT IN FOR THE FRONT END CREEKY NOISE AND THEY REPLACED MY SHOCK MOUNTS. THAT DIDN'T HELP THOUGH. THE NOISE IS WORSE THAN EVER. ITS WHEN YOU TURN TH WHEEL,GO OVER BUMPS,EVEN WHIEN I'M DRIVING OUT OF THE PARKING GARAGE AT WORK. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR IN TWICE NOW AND ITS STILL NOT FIXED. HAS ANYONE LOOKED AT YOUR CAR?

 

lube the sway bar bushings

 

My 04 aveo does the same thing.I've brought it ina couple of times andat this point I think it's just how the car is. <edited><editID>evmalone</editID><editDate>38706.3688078704</editDate></edited>

 

I've got creaks, groans and crunches from all 4 corners while turning, braking, accelerating, going over bumps and even getting in and out of the car. Dealer lubricated the control arm bushings per Chevy service bulletin. Did no good and there are no replacement shocks and struts yet. I don't want the same junk that came on the car.

If anyone has a fix, please post it.

 

From what I have read, it seems to be a bushing noise problem. I am taking my car in tomorrow. I am not optimistic on a real fix, but if anyone has any further input on this, it would be appreciated.

 

I would try a little grease on the sway bar bushings.

 

Yep. try spray lubricant. Mine is a contraction, rubbing and expansion issue that's causing the annoying creeking sound.
