Front End Creeking?

#2
I also have a creaking in coupe's front end. I dunno where it is coming from but usually occurs when I m turning the steering wheel and can be heard mostly like when u lock the steering for turn or something. I have no clue as to what it is but I have to take it in to get checked out.

How do you tell if it's the console piece making the noise, is it just the "circle" at the shifter or the whole top piece? I have a feeling this may just be a normal sound, I experience it too from time to time, I had the dealer check it out once already, still hear it, but it's not on every bump or anything, just ocaisionally.

I have the same problem. The creaking (or crunching) sound is definitely coming from the front end, but my dealer couldn't find anything on the first try. The sound is most prominent at slow speed only. Speed bumps usually set it off, and it does seem to change sound if the steering wheel is being turned simultaneously.
Note that the TSB mentioned above only pertains to a very-few 2003 models. (Mine is a 2004)
My dealer lubricated the sway bars and check tightneess of all suspension bolts, but none of this helped. I'm now thinking it may be related to the steering rack, or even some underbody item.
Any tips would be appreciated!!

I hear it just as all you guys described, I never noticed it before until one day when I was driving slow with the radio off and heard it............. Its so annoying and hard to pinpoint as to where it is coming from.. I am going to make an appointment for service this week to get it fixed because its rather embarrassing I think to have a 2003 infiniti that creaks as you turn or go over speed bumps....
I will keep everyone posted as to what the end result is.....

Funny. Yesterday after reading this thread my 2004 Sedan suddenly started squeaking and groaning. Sounds like my dog's squeaky chew toy. Sounds like front end and/or console area. And...a bit of squeak out of the rear corners. Yesterday was the first day here on the coast of Maine where temp went from the 30 degree range to about 20. Could it be the temp?

I had my sedan for 1 year, and i've just notice this noise from the front too. So i actually have 2 different noise from the front now. The squeeky noise from break and creaking noise from the front. It sounds like its from spring...How nice~ The noise doesnt occur often though...only when i make big turns or break.
Any of you brought it to the dealer yet?
