Creaking sound

Hi All, our 2017 Thor ACE 29R has an annoying sound in driver’s side cab area. It only happens at 1-5 mph. I can also feel a slight “rubbing” on steering column. I have had lube job, brakes, bearings, struts checked or replaced. I silicon sprayed every area I suspected underneath driver’s area. I put a couple self penetrating screws in floor board & checked to make sure seat was tight. Also checked the super slide behind driver’s seat. I suspect the floor, but cant stop it. No help from Thor because warranty stops after original owner, I am the second one. Any ideas would be appreciated! -Metz

Since it happens at a very slow speed I would suggest taking it to a large empty parking lot with someone else to help and drive by them slowly (perhaps even videoing it going by so you can watch the video later).

Barring that, get a GoPro and mount it in specific spots and drive it around...?
