Stiff steering/Creaking noise?
 

I haven't driven my G for a while, but as I start driving her today, it really seems as if the steering has gotten tighter... much tighter. Also, I'm hearing a creaking noise from the suspension when I steer at very low speed or steering when almost stationary (i.e, pulling out of a parking space, etc.)

What gives? Has anyone else experienced this? Can someone attempt to "dry steer" their G coupe and tell me if they're getting the same noise? Thanks.
