Yes, I have the same issue. If I am stopped, and I slowly turn the steering wheel to the left and then right, I get this creaking, knocking sound. This is a common issue on the HS250 as well and since the two vehicles came out at approximately the same time, I am sure they use the same steering column/parts. Best to let your dealer check it out, they can either lube it or maybe even change it out. I have yet to go, but my next oil change is in 2000 miles so Ill bring it up then

my 2010 had the same problem and they replaced the steering column, and the noise went away.
