Its the exhaust flange people.. When you accelerate the engine moves a little.... and so should the exhaust with it... If theres no flex inyour exhaust then it wil just make this annoyin creaking noise, and yes it does go away with about 10 - 15 mins of driving because everything is hot and has expanded... Probably taking away any movement at all.... It is the exhaust flange. What im having done is the flange stripped down... gasket replaced, and new bolts on the flange to slacken the tightness of my springs.....cause on my car they were dead tight (No back and fourth spring at all in the coil)
