Creaks in the front end when I'm turning while braking.
I have noticed that although my SC is almost 10 years old, more creaks happen when i turn, say into my driveway, while braking. it happens in the front end, an although its not a problem, it is very annoying, and i just don't want any potential problems with it. anyone have the same issues? thanks.

Creaking while turning could be tie rod ends drying out. Jack it up, grab the tire 180 degrees apart and torque it (push with one hand and pull with the other). Clunking or movement with the hands horizontal usually means tie rods/steering, steering rack bushings, etc. Clunking/motion with the hands vertical usually means ball joints. Probably not springs since this isn't a McPearson strut design, but I'm certainly not a suspension expert.
