(T) Creaking dash

Mine creaks on corners when its cold (below zero) - sounds as if the creaking is coming from near the passenger side A-post, but I've not investigated it yet

Mines not creaking, it sounds like a vibrating from behind the clocks.

[When I had a three door Stilo it used to creak from the A pillar when cornering. One day when cleaning the car I noticed if you pressed on the front wing where it meets the A pillar it made the same noise. I sprayed the bolt behind the wing with WD40 and it stopped. although it came back after about a month so I had to do it again. It's never happened on my 5 door though.

Hi all im a new forum user, had my Abarth since may 2002 and had the same creaky dash prob the dealer couldnt sort it,
I found the problem after hours of driving over speed bumps, its the front passenger side pillar, my solution was to take off the pillar trim and spray lots WD-40 through the many holes along the pillar.
Hope this helps a few people.
