I'm beginning to get a small bit of play from my bottom bracket. I can slightly rock the cranks and there is an occasional cracking/creaking noise from that general area. So is the BB dying or can I do something to tighten things up? It's a shimano press fit on a 2011 Giant TCR1 (2011). If I have to replace it, is it a job…

I'm beginning to get a small bit of play from my bottom bracket. I can slightly rock the cranks and there is an occasional cracking/creaking noise from that general area.

So is the BB dying or can I do something to tighten things up? It's a shimano press fit on a 2011 Giant TCR1 (2011).

If I have to replace it, is it a job I could reasonably tackle (i've replaced threaded BBs before) or is it one for the LBS?
