if you are lowered with more than 90K miles, and been running with no camber adjustment for quite some time.... i will say it is the wheel bearing going bad.

most likely, I have the same sound, will be replacing pads this winter/spring.

Don't fret about it, nothing will happen.

im stock height. never modded my suspension. i dont it just bothers me. exspecially when im driving and its windy you just hear creaking sounds. its wierd. its probably just nothing and jusat the frame shifting while im driving and such?

ive always just wanted to pinpoint the sound. maybe i can drive my car and record it for you guys.

Just throwing this out there...but it is possible that the spring sitting in its perch's on the strut, has these thin rubber bushings between both metal contact points. It could be possible that if the car was ever jacked up and the strut was stretched out, that things could have shifted.

Or the strut its self could be slightly loose either at the top of the strut or down behind the rotor.

Or a bolt on the A-arm has worked its self slightly loose.

I've never heard of a wheel bearing making a noise only during the first moment of acceleration then stopping. A wheel bearing would make a constant droning/grinding noise at all speeds.

new thing i notice. for example when you drive to a stoplight and its in neutral and the light turns green and you put it back into 2nd. it makes the sound once i engaged and start driving again after shifting into 2nd.
