that's pretty interesting - the creak, that is. I'll be damned if I can definitively tell you what's causing that. I have two Saabs, a 2000 9-3 base and a 2002 9-5 Aero and both intermittently creak to one degree or another from the front suspension when going over speed bumps or in other situations where both wheels fully compress at the same time. The 9-3 is the worst and most persistent, and I've researched this board and climbed under the car more times than I can remember. But I have not found the origin of the creak, and frankly, I don't think anyone else has either, although you will read a lot of opinions if you do a search because it is pretty common. One thing I do know is that does not seem to be a wear item. Although it comes and goes, in over 90K miles of driving (both cars combined) it has not gotten better or worse, and no other symptoms have shown up. Although it is against my nature, I've just gotten used to it. Sorry I could not be of more help. I you find a cure, be sure and post it.
