~Hi I have a Ford Ka , however, I have had new steering rack, new suspension springs and shocks and front suspension top mounts and new bearings and creaks when driving and turning my car. Its coming from the Drivers side and its creaks when setting off from a junction, going over speed bumps and all rubbers/bushes fine.
I have the same problem... Did you ever get this resolved?
Is this a suspension creak, or a door creak?
Components which you haven't had changed are:
bottom suspension arms
Anti roll bar links
Also lubricate your door lock mechanism, hinges and window rubbers as these can cause creaks from time to time.

You might have the lower swing arm bushing checked mine slid of the bushing but stayed in the cradle on the passengers side.Only made noise when ibacked or turned sharp left.

HI, this noise can be caused by worn shocks,even if the bushings look good, you can remove one of them and check if is hard to constracts ,if not they must be replaced,

There's a chance that the ball joints need grease. This should help, however once they have started to make noise like that due to lack of grease, they usually have gone bad. Replacement may be the only remedy. Hope this helps.

Check the anti-roll bar bushes and also the end stops of the anti-roll bar

My grandfather has a 97 Ford Crown Vic that used to do the same thing. He had the front end greased when he got an oil change and that solved the problem. So thats probably all you need.
