Took my 2006 V8V out the garage for a run last night and as soon as got onto country roads the dash started creaking I have had the car for about a year now and never heard it before. Is this common and is there a fix?

Yes, but you have to narrow the noise down to a specific area.Mine was the heater vents. Some are covered by warranty.

mine was the area around the gear knob, took apart and added more anti-squeal tape

I've had this on all 4 Astons I have owned.

Along with a plethora of other rattles, creaks and squeaks.
