i have an intermittent creaking noise that happens when i brake and also when i turn the car while moving. It sounds worse sometimes, especially if i turn and brake at the same time. I'm 90% sure it's coming from the front right wheel area. I have had a look under and take the wheel and brakes off but can't see anything (I'm no mechanic though hence this question lol) it has been happening for maybe a month and i think it's gotten worse/more frequent. In the video it's hard to hear and sounds louder in person, apologies for that.

I don't see the video, can you please reupload it? But I can tell you I have seen the wheel bearing hub make these noises and cause this problem, here is how to change it out which should fix the issue. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
