I used a syringe to put some thin oil in bottom ball joints, stopped it straight away.

My 2001 Grand vitara is also making these sounds and I have replaced the struts, axel boots, and ball joints/control arm.. and it is still making the sounds.

Has anyone been able to figure out where the creaking sound is coming from ?
