Creaking Noise When Turning slow - Suspension Help

Need some advice guys. I recently upgraded to tein basis coilovers, skunk2 uppers, replaced driver side ball joint and lower control arms. Replaced sway bar bushings. Alignment is almost perfect. Rides great but I can’t seem to get rid of this creaking noise that started once I added the camber kit. Wondering if it can be the rack and pinion and needs to be totally replaced or if it’s something else? Posting video of the. Noise that happens when turning from a stop or slow turn.

My 08 type s also does this, I've read through some threads and its sounding like a binding rack and pinion. I'm changing all of my transmission switches and mounts along with my motor mounts. I'll keep you updated as to whether that helps or not. I've heard bad mounts can make alot of funky noises
