I keep hearing a creeking noise in the front of my truck all the time. Have new tires, front end was checked and serviced. Could there be a problem with the cv joints, and if so what can be done?

Cv joints don't creak. At least I have never heard that from them. At What conditions does it happen?

Is it going over bumps?

While turning?

At a stand still and turning wheel?

Cruising at low speeds?

Need more info on this.
