I have the same tower. Mine doesn't creak, but I have noticed that the bolts can work their way out. Specifically the ones that hold the upper tower to the lower tower (the pivot point when you take the tower down). Tighten them up to remove any play, maybe it will quiet down. I haven't had any problems with the mounting bolts (the ones that go through the gelcoat) coming loose at all, but check those, too. To me creaking implies movement somewhere. If tightening everything up doesn't help, maybe it's as simple as putting some lube in some strategic places. I know it helped on my mtb handlebars.
