Interesting. I'm still evaluating (deciding if it's a genuine issue that needs to be checked by the dealership) the occasional creaking that comes from behind the glove compartment area in my 09 EX sedan. I think it usually happens as I gently accelerate from a stop, or when I turn slowly, or when I turn into my driveway.

I would equate the sound of tiptoeing on carpet in a house, but the floor underneath still makes that creaking sound. It's also similar to the creaking that comes from my sunroof when I'm turning into my driveway.

It's usually a faint creak, but it's enough to annoy the isht out of me. And yes, there are 267 threads on this, and I'm currently sifting through them to enlighten myself. It might just be the glove compartment knobs that hold it in, that need lubing. Or it could be the struts or any # of the 76 issues mentioned when I sifted through a couple of those threads . Might also have something to do with the unavoidable pothole that my right tires hit every day on the thin twisty on my way to work every day.
