Quite Worrying
I've started noticing this about 1 month ago and had it checked at the dealer and nothing. Whenever the car is rolling off a stop or turning at low speeds, heck even at a decent speed, there is a CRACK noise coming from both behind the car and from the front. I went to my 35,000 Maintenance and the guys at Toyota said that there is nothing wrong with the frame, that it is just "Body Flex" that I am experiencing.... Question is...WTF IS THAT NOISE and WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF IT??
I read on the Strut bars description that they are meant to "Eliminate body flex and body roll" so under that idea does it mean that getting a Strut bar will eliminate that noise, cuz it is really worrying.

My creaking got much worse after stiffening up the car with front and rear bars and stiffer shocks and springs, so this is definitely not the solution to your problem. I consider it normal, because my car is young. It makes sense that if you eliminate flex from suspension by tightening everything up, then other parts of the car will receive the flex instead - ie, the roof, pillars, hatch, etc.
