Default Front suspension creaking during slow braking and turning

I think this has been documented before, and I think it has something to do with the F sport braking system, but during slow turning while braking (ie turning into a parking space and making u turns) I have a slight creaking/cracking noise coming from the front. Problem never happens when going over speed bumps or dips in road, just when wheel is turned and I'm braking into a turn.

I believe I saw something about the parking e-brake line having slack from the factory and there was a recommendation to leave the parking brake engaged during the night for a few days in a row?

Car is lowered on swift springs, but again, problem is limited to very specific instances and occurs only in combination with brakes engaged. Highly doubt its a tie rod, end link, etc. issue. Could be wrong though. Just never heard brakes making that kind of cracking,creaking noise.....Maybe its something with the design of the car with brakes and suspension in combination....

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!
