Volkswagen Golf creaking and knocking sounds

Car: Volkswagen Golf
Variant: 1.8 GTi
Model Year: 2000
Categories: Steering, Suspension, Brakes, Wheels & Tyres
I have noticed recently that the car is sounding very creaky apart from the usual squeak when going over speed bumps. It now creaks at every opportunity, even turning the wheel. Turning the wheel also leads to a worryingly knocking sound.I think it may be the cv joint, but I am unable to be sure.
