So recently i started a thread about a weird noise I was hearing when making u-turns and backing up into spaces:

People have linked me to similar problems noted in the thread:

Since I cannot reproduce the problem "on-call", as in, whenever i want to i can as its not constant i wasn't sure if they will road test and try themselves. I have told them about the audizine threads and they simply told me not to believe those. They eventually found some TSB which sounded like it could fix the problem. TSB of (2016681/6)
BUT nope, i still hear the noise at times when backing up with a turn, or making u-turn, but to make things more interesting I now hear noises when engaging the brakes. It seems like an old spring of some sort that gets compressed and depressed and makes a creaking noise of some sort. When i press the brake pedal harder it just keeps on creaking. It just sounds wrong for a car still under factory warranty.
This problem i CAN replicate so it wont be a problem when i go to the dealer. Just annoying as hell to have to keep coming back to the same place for the same issue. This will be the second time they try to "fix" it.
Do you guys have any ideas? Should i go back to the same dealer? I'm thinking yes since they did the TSB and i could bitch them out. [headbang]
