Groaning - sounds a lot like struts, but could be lots of other things.

To check your struts, push down (maybe with another person) on the whole front of the car. When you let go, it should go back to the resting position - but should NOT "bounce" up and down any...

hmm I have a similar groan coming from my front end as well, but only while braking gently/starting from stop, and always at low speeds, though the noise is not always there. Not sure what causes it though.
