What do you mean by creeking? Like the pistons are getting stuck moving or something like that?

Do you drive the car every day or is there time where it sits for a day or so?

drive it everyday it does it rather it's sits for a while or not. pistons can't be the problem because it stops really really well. just the creeking noise is kind of embarrasing is all. like put your foot on it it's like creeek as you push it then creeeeek as you get your foot off it. it has to be somewhere in the linkage is all i can think.

Is it when you slow to a stop? Or at all speeds?

Stock rotors are CRAP. Check your rotors...they are famous for warping.

So it happens when you engaged the brake pedal? Whether you move or not?
