creaking noise from front passenger side

dthem370 · 11-01-2011, 02:54 AM

Lately I have been noticing a creaking noise every time I come to a slow stop and then accelerate slowly from a stop. It sounds like its coming from the passenger front area. After driving for like 3 miles the noise goes away. Anyone know what this can be? I'm thinking maybe the brakes??? Car has 15,500 miles.

That happened to me 2 times, it sounds like there is something between the pad and the disc.. but there was nothing the 2 times I checked. Hasn't happened again. Wheel bearing?

i get a "click" when take off and a "clunk" when i stop..... im also assuming wheel bearings.

what sort of creaking? high frequency or low?

High. Like when brake pads are gone. But it's not constant. It is def related to rotation

Hey, I just started to hear the same sound from today! It is exactly same sound as you were talking about, some kind of "tick" sound from the passenger side brake I think. It's so annoying. I never noticed it until now. When I come to stop slowly, I hear TICK. then when I take off slowly, I hear TICK again. did anyone solved the problem yet??

Was there a passenger in the seat when you heard it?
