-when i brake

Could be - how many miles on the X and have you ever done any front suspension work? If over 100k, I'd just refresh the whole front suspension.

182 000km no suspension work on it

How much do you love your X? You can chase a squeak at individual parts or just replace the whole front and rear susp and have a new driving X again for about $1k plus alignment - at your mileage and age and considering the wintry area you live in, most of the parts are probably worn.

Some people report "creak" noise like this from the metal front reinforcing plate (looks like a metal splash pan) if the bolts aren't fully torqued to spec.

noise is back here and there, seem like its the control arm, any recommended performance brand ?
