Can you be more specific about the "creaking noise?" When does it occur? Also, what is your current freewheel and can you post pictures?

IMO, that's an unusual noise for a freewheel and I wonder if something else is causing the noise you hear.

Side note: Using my powers of deduction, I guess the OP's freewheel is a Perfect or a ProCompe.
