twice in 12 hours when I turn on the truck there is a very strange groaning/creeking slound coming from the glovebox area. The truck is not moving when it happens, and it doesn’t sound like a motor or compressor. Best explanation is that it sounds like groaning/creeking.

I thought it could be related to the air suspension, but again, it doesnt sound like a compressor running or pressure being purged.

Any ideas?

This sounds like the blend doors for the cabin air groaning at you. Mine does it and the air always comes on hot. Have to turn on ac to get the doors to move to cold air then shut it off.

The blend door motors are small and easy to change. There are 3. 2 begins the center console area and one you have to take out the glove box to get to.

Hopefully it is just the motor behind the glove box for you.
