my front end seems very creaky, not in full lock etc, when i start up and press brakes and drive off it creaks from the front end? engine mounts? dodgy brakes(new pads and discs about 4motnhs ago)

mine too, not the dog bone mount as suggested in other threads though in my case. Gonna get it up on the ramps later in the week will post back up if i find anything

definatel brakes, it creaks not squeeling, sounds like it's not from pads but slightly higher up maybe?

Mine was creaking. Oiled up every bush under the car i could find.

Few days later noticed it had a broken tensioner pulley. Got it sorted and its never creaked since so not sure if the dealer touched on the creak when they sorted the tensioner or if the tensioner was the creak!
Worth checking your pulleys just to see as you know what happens if it throws a aux belt at speed
