I hear these annoying ticking and crackling noise from the suspension when driving the car at slow speed maneuvring with steering wheel.
(hard to explain, its like 'tick tick tick' noise)
I believe it will still sound when driving at high speed but cannot test it due to wind noise.

Anyone has this problem? or is it a problem?

have your wheel bearings checked. If thats not it, come back and we can discuss this further!

I hear the sound when I'm turning steering wheel.
Its like a ticking and creaking noise combined.

Also, sometimes when the car is parked, it makes this ugly creaking noise from the suspension.
It sounds as if the metal is contracted by the extream heat then expanded.

It happens occasionally.

is the eletromechanical parking brake self-adjusting. It comes from the LR. Please have your wheel bearings checked for the "first" sound. I went through two sets of bearings in under 16K.

But does it really cost $16000 to fix a wheel bearing? Was it a misprint?

I am having this same problem up at the fron left of the car. Seems to be suspension or steering related. I can park the car and move the steering wheel back and forth and make it do it a little, like a click at a time, but when driving it does it like crazy when turning. Kind of only when the wheels are being turned, but if they are already turned and you are going in say a cricle it wont do it.

Any ideas.

I lubed all moving/rotating joints in the front left suspension to no avail.
