macpherson struts or brakes creaking?

hello.

i have a 2008 automatic sedan. my odometer reads about 38K kilometers.

i have been feeling or hearing a creaking sound coming from the front of the car when braking. more so, if it's a sudden hard stop. i don't know if it's from the brakes or the macpherson struts. also up front, there's a slight knocking or clunking sound when the brakes are applied.

are these problems connected? are they common? what could they be?

thanks for any advice.
