Creaking Sounds When Driving....Front End....(PICS)
Ive noticed that there is creaking sounds when ever I am driving over bumps or pulling into a driveway. I took some pics of both sides on the front end. I see slight cracking going on for both sides......
Looking to sell off the TC soon and I'm not sure if this is an expensive fix or not. Judging from the pics, is possible for the cracking can be causing the creaking noises?

Dropped my car off at toyota today. They looked at it but didn't see anything causing the creaks.....bushings.....struts.....ect were good. They did lubricated the area. While it did help ALOT....it still creaks slightly when I drive slowly up on a driveway

that is the dustboot that prevents any small material from getting into your shock so i doubt that is the reason. how many miles on the car? sounds like you might need a new set of shocks

I just hit 99k today......didn't touch none of that stuff since owning the car in 2007..... So you might be right.

I too have the front end creaking noise (2006 150k). I will be replacing: Struts, spring pads, boots + bottom out bumpers. I know for sure that my drivers side strut is bad (leaking oil).
If the noise still persists, the sway bar bushings are the next to get replaced!

I've had creaking on my car. Original shocks and I am at 126k now. I just bought TRD struts and am replacing them Saturday, will let you know if creaking goes away.
Mine is very minor, I almost don't notice it.

might try this , remove tires and remove both left and right sway bar links, x4 nuts. and just let the sway bar in place, keep in mind it might create a different noise if sway bar hits, but wont damage any thing, and drive if your creak noise, goes away, most likely your squeaky noise is generated by your sway bar bushing supporting your sway bar. spraying wd40 might help,or minimize it will return best way to eliminate noise would be by removing them and lube the inner part. with silicone grease..
