C5 Estate 2004 creaking noise - help

[10051550]

It's driving me mad and sounds like the drivers chair is creaking ( it's not )

I can't find anything loose on the front offside corner - but it defo coming from that direction

Loud Creak when turning wheel left/right and pulling away from stationery - after that it goes away ?!?

If I jack up the front offside it stops completely ..

Anyone had similar / any suggestions ?

Seat belt buckle where it bolts to the seat ?
Well that was my mystery squeak anyway.

exact same problem I think 100..

small movement of car forwards or back, and maybe with a slight turn of the wheel, and a loudish crack/creak..
I am suspecting a cv joint issue, have looked at and silicone sprayed the lower arm bushes briefly to no avail..

Interesting , I'm 2 weeks away from a slot to fix due to work, updates in meantime appreciated !

I tend to keep turning the radio up

I will have a peek in the cv boot at some point if i can..

Make sure the wishbone mounting bolts are all FT.

They'll "creak" if not.
