So this winter I have noticed that the A pillar noise is MUCH more noticeable...meh, I'm still just going to shrug it off.

I posted the link to the B-pillar fix earlier in this thread. Check pages 1 & 2.

It's probably the cold weather acting on the metal.

When I bought my box in January of last year, I noticed those creaks, and then they disappeared around April when it starts to warm up in Florida. Then over summer, the intense heat made the sound continue again.

And now... well, Winter's coming up in January as December is generally 65 degrees and up.

Anybody know if there's a TSB for a control arm?

No piece of machinery is perfect guys. Instead of complaining why not spend a afternoon in the garage trying to see if there is something you can do about it. My car pops too... my fix get a engine damper. The engine rattles the car so much you cant hear the pop anymore .
