Have a 07 auto TSX. The following issues have popped up lately-

1. Creaking from steering column. Happens when I am driving on rough, bumpy uneven roads at low speeds.

2. rattle from glovebox. Cabin air filter was changed recently by a auto shop. Rattle appeared after that. Goes away if I open the glove box while driving. Could they have broken something in there?

3. Finally, is there a way to set the HFL to unlock mode without having to put in the code everytime I start the car. Initially it was set up like that but then my battery drained on me and I had to get a jump. Ever since, the HFL locks out when I shut the car and needs the code to unlock on starting up.

Thanks!

Not sure if your problem #1 is this or not, as the TSB states the steering wheel squeaks when turned, and yours is when you go over bumps, but:
