Try to loosen the screw just a little bit as shown in post 48 above. That fixed the problem for most of us. Some still had the sound so it does not always work.

Here is what I did with it to solve the issue and it worked. Since the beginning grip was creaking near IR sensor when you lift or move K-1 camera in hand. It felt like some cheap plastic thing due to creaking. Really bad feeling because I like the build of the camera and want it to be perfect, but that feeling in my hand wasn't good.
I unscrewed one of the two screws on the front side of the grip, closer to the lens mount, that are revealed once you open battery doors at the bottom of the grip. I unscrewed it anticlockwise for approximately 270 dehrees, i.e. not full circle. Creaking completely stopped. Tested it today with the heaviest lens and it's fine. Miracle. But before it was really not pleasant. Now, loving my camera even more. Hope this helps you too. See the attached photo of how it was done.
