I don't have the same TT as you do but I also have some squeaking. For me it's worse when I'm not perfectly level. So I continue to strive to perfect my leveling techniques.

I can actually see the wood seams lifting apparently the screws are coming loose or they just forgot to screw them in. I will be replacing the enclosed underbelly this fall and installing heat strips and adding insulation at that point I will locate the floor joists and run some screws up through them and wedge if necessary.

Ours was squeaking as you step in, found the steps needed to be tightened, they were so loose the metal molding across the bottom of the threshold came loose, some of the forum members suggested getting a 2 step jacks to give some support to the steps and not stress the unit so much when you walk in or out.

is it over carpet or tile ?

on our 2 story home years ago,
we found the joist with a stud finder,
spread the threads of the carpet back enough over the joist so we could screw in a wood screw down into it...

it was the subfloor separating from the joist and squeaking on the loose nail...

This product is good for squeaks. Used this product before. Worked great. Worth the $20.
