UPDATE:

Just changed the stabilizer bar bushes at SC and the creaking is gone. It seems this is a common problem for this model City.

I was also STRONGLY ADVISED not to lubricate these bushes or absorber mount and othert parts tht were designed to function dry. It seems they have seen quite a few customers come after using AT205 and other simillar products, where the rubber part degrades terribly after some time and becomes useless. Some others had corrosion and  surface damage on the metal parts and painted surface.

Just be careful and be warned if anyone thinking of trying that stuff out.

Mine have that “krakk” sounds when going over bump and rattling on uneven road?
Could it be stabiliser bar bush too?

Honda? Maybe the steering rack... Try turning your steering wheel left and right, if got a knocking sound.... well prepare your wallet.

Also, might be an issue with absorber bearings, stabilizer bush, or absorber link...

FYI, the lower arm, and stabilizer bush are easy to verify. Just fully turn your steering wheel and use your phone to take a picture to check for cracks.

Looks good right? I suspect my shocks now.
Was wondering should I go back to sc to check.
Or any recommended workshop?

But from the look, is it stabiliser link spoilt?

Yea.. from the looks of it. Also, from the pic, it looks like your absorber might be leaking, if yes, then absorber also gone

I went to check at some shop and was told the sound is from steering rack. When they gently knock on the rack end, there’s some sound from steering rack. Was quoted 700+ for a China brand rack. Worth it?

Good morning guys, thanks for the topic.

Sometimes when I get out of my car, my car creaks. I changed all my absorbers and stabilizer arms but still creaking.

A car forum suggested it's my parking brake. Any idea?

I think it is. Try pull hand brake tight and try again.
