Default Creaking sound

Hi, I got a problem with my A6 2001 model. Somewhere around the left wheel there is a very annoying creaking sound. Sometimes it's there and sometimes it's not, but now I'm wondering what's wrong.

Here's a small video I took with my mobile of the sound when I just pushed the car a bit back and forth.

Any ideas?

It could be the bushings on the control arms. When they wear out they will make a creaking sound.
