Anytime I am reversing out of a parking lot, I get a creaking sound coming from the front of my car. Anyone know what this could be? I will occasionally get it while I am driving if I hit a bump or something, but not all that often.
 
Unfortunately it's completely normal. It's your bushings. Do a search through the stickies and you'll read about ALL the problems you'll eventually encounter.
 
ya and if you replace the bushings make sure you put allot of silicone grease in or they will start to squeek again right away.
 
Ok. Thanks for the help. I actually have been meaning to replace them. I bought the front ones, when I bought back ones. Replaced the back ones to fix a squeak from hell, but had not got around to the front yet. They were not giving me any trouble at the time.
