I am thoroughly disgusted. My front left (driver's side) lower control arm is creaking again... it's the THIRD FRIGGIN' ONE I've put on that corner!

The alignment specs are dead on.

I hear that boxster spec racing guys go through them like tires but I hardly put any miles on my car and I don't drive it all that hard.

Any idea what's causing this corner of the car to wear out control arms with 18 month regularity?
