Owing to mileage (145,000 kms) and a drop in suspension performance over bumps, I decided to have a shop replace a number of parts of the suspension system, hoping to get that New Car "feel" back. They replaced:

- Front Struts (Sachs Blue sticker)
- Coil springs
- Control Arms
- Stabilizer Bars
- Stabilizer links (End links)
- Sway Bar Links and bushings

An front-end alignment was done at the end. After about 100 kms, VERY noticeable creaking sounds started coming from the front end over any size bump and the sounds have only gotten worse over the past few weeks.

Was there something they should have replaced at the same time that they didn't? Any suggestion on what this might be? The sounds are not minor.....the front end now sounds like it's a 1979 Ford Pickup truck.

Thanks.
