    Default 2005 Subaru Outback creaking noise

    Vehicle has over 200k on it. It has been sitting in garage for about a month now, started driving it again last week. Front driver side wheel makes a creaking noise when accelerating from a start, or doing turns at low speeds. Car handle's fine, no noticeable issues when driving, just this sound. Only on the drivers side too....

    Probably wheel bearing.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    Check the boot on the cv joints, possible torn and all the grease is gone and dry bearings.

    CV's usually make a clunking noise when turning. Lift up the front of the car and check your balljoints and bushings etc

    front CV are common for these Subaru. That or the bearing. On a rare chance i might also be the brakes.
