Any ideas about a creaking sound from underneath the driver's floor/footwell area on a 96 Crown Vic? Most noticeable during warmer weather, and during slow-downs, turns. Springs appear to be fine, and there's no sagging. I've been told this is common (from a cop who drives one, but was unable to tell me exactly what the diagnosis was). Any ideas?

How about when you turn the steering while sitting still?
Bounce the car? Make a stethoscope and check it out... could be a frame crack or ball joint.
