Default Stupid Stupid Creaking Noise!

This is doing my head in, when I turn my steering right or left it makes this terrible, embaressing creaking noise, I took it to my mechanic he said all the rubbers are fine, he said a few compnents needed to be tightend which he did, but still the creaking noise when I turn the steering wheel. He said he coudn't figure out where the noise is comming from. His best guess was possibly in the steering box aswell but he wasn't sure.

do you guys have any ideas as to what it can be?

Mine noise was from the lower strut bolt. It was tight but after gronking it a little my noise was gone. Caution, bolt are prone to breaking, poor quality bolts used in assemble. Good luck.

Well I had a Chrysler Sebring a few years back and it did the same thing you are describing. I took it to a mechanic and he had to replace the ball joints on both sides along with the lower control arm. Hope this helps you out and let us know.
