Starting to notice a creaking when I turn left or articulate over things. I did a test to see what wheel it comes from by putting one of the Front wheels on a low curb and having the other one on pavement. This showed me that it was coming from the right wheel. It would Creak while going up the curb slowly. I faintly feel it in the steering wheel (little vibrations). Another thing also worth noting is that when I had the car serviced and the oil changed and the “5.0L lube points” done (comes with the service) the creak disappeared for about 2 weeks. It then came back again. Any ideas? The car steers and drives perfectly fine but don’t want it to become a bigger issue.

Sway bar bushing, sway bar endlink, or control arm.
Lower control arm is most likely

I have the same creaking. All new front suspension components. I attribute it to the poly sway bar bushing and ignore it.
