Lube all the hinges with lithium grease, lube the latch points with silicone grease, lube the seals with shin-etsu grease.

YAAYUhh!

Funny, I just started getting this problem too, mainly when the top is down... a creaking sound right by my head I can't pinpoint, coming from the top. Guess it's time to get out the grease.

This is for when the top creaks when it is up not when it is down.
