Crepitus: Crepitus or cracking underneath the patella or kneecap is often a sign that early wear is occurring in the facets of the kneecap. One can try to improve the vmo strength of your quad to improve patella tracking that may offset the crepitus but often times exercise may not change or alter the sounds of crepitus.
