Hmmm, the creaking came back.

One of the posts is accurate in saying that it really only does it under parking situation where there's a lot of pull on the wheel. However, mine did it while driving, that's why it drove me mad originally!

So not have gone through the above steps again and done the opposite - I've really loosened the 3 torx screws thinking that if there's less 'tightness' on the cheap plastic, then it's less likely to crack/creak.

Initially it seems quiet...

Still I am really disappointed I'm taking apart a £50k car! I also think part of the reason is that the steering is so heavy. My last car, an Audi A6, had really light steering at parking speeds.
