Usally it means you need new brakes or a CV boot has ripped...

Re: Weird noise on sharp left turns

What type of sound are you hearing?

There is a creak / creaking sound reported on sharp turns that comes from the front of the G. A TSB was issued to resolve this involving increasing clearance between the radiator support and the frame. I have this problem, and it only happns on sharp turns over bumps or into driveways. Read the full TSB <a href=http://www.g35world.com/tsb/02060.htm>here </a>

I am not sure if they corrected this on the 04 and later.

Rear-wheel drive cars don't have CV boots.

I've had front wheel drive cars my whole life, so when I heard the description I just automaticly responded it sounded like a CV boot hehe

No prob. You're forgiven now that you drive a car with the correct drive wheels.

I'm guessing by the "G35X" in the original poster's name that he has an AWD variant. If this is the case, then he does indeed have driveshaft boots. The description can be found in the FAX section of the 2004 FSM.
