I noticed a loud creaking noise from the front right side by the tire. It goes off when I push the front up and down, moving the tire left and right, slow and fast speeds.


Last time this occurred I replaced the thrust arm bearing and nut about 50,000 miles ago.


What does everyone think this is?


Which parts should I order?


Thanks in advance.

upper or lower control arms perhaps. Does it do it when going over a speed bump?

I just had the same thing and it was the lower control arm. Not sure what the part number is. It was covered under warranty.

I ordered the bearing; hope I don't need an arm. Ill post the results.

AMG brakes? You'll see individual AMG take offs on eBay, just pick up an OEM rim and mount a comparable tire.

When you say moving the tire left and right, do you mean from a stop or while cornering?

Turning the wheel left and right

Lower Control Arm cured it. $580 for arm and labor + the initial bearing replacement.

This is the same issue as your other post about a 'squeaking' noise right???

Yes problem solved
