I’ve noticed a kinda creaking /flexing noise when steering the wheel but only when the car is stationary and I’m holding the brake down while steering.
I could never reliably recreate it. It would just pop and clunk on hot days when going over slightly uneven roads or sometimes what seemed like flat roads. After the SIB fix was applied (tie rods replaced) I have not noticed the clunk anymore. I do get creaking when cutting the wheel to the extremes while standing still or moving slowly, like parking in tight spaces.
