I have a creaking noise when I turn either way in my honda earlier in
the year it was only to the extremes to almost full turn but now it is
getting so it does it when it is less. I also noticed it only usually
did it when i went left but not right at first but now it goes both
ways... Do I need to regrease the ball joints or what is going on???

it's the lower ball joint going bad on one side or maybe both. it's probably
to late for grease. listen for what side you hear the noise from. if you can
grease them do it but if theyre sealed then you'll just need to replace them
or at least the one making noise. don't let them go like they are for long
or you'll be having a wheel cave in and you'll be replacing alot more than
the ball joint.
