05 C230 SS - Clicking/Creaking Noise From Front End (suspension/steering)
I have a creaking/clicking noise coming from the front end of my '05 SS, only occurs at low speeds (under 10 mph) when turning. Anyone had anything similar to this?
The cars going to the shop in the coming days to remedy this problem, just wanted to sound out and see if people know what this might be, what was fixed?
Thanks,
Lowell

Great, becuase my SA just called and said that they couldn't duplicate the sound so I have to go in tomorrow to let them hear it. Im interested to hear what they did to remedy your situation.
Thanks

Hrm i have a similar problem cept i'm almost sure it has to do with the steering. Cause when my car's first warming up, whenever i turn the steering wheel it'll make this weird buzzing sound from the front. Now i went to the dealer a while back with the problem and they fixed it but they said it the belts or something (need to go check up the invoice). But it's back again now, so i'm wondering what it could be

Well..mine wasn't the stabilizer bar, but it is fixed.
Here's what the tech did, " Replace left strut top bearing place, loosen and retighten subframe bolts, losen and retighten rack bolts, loosen and retighten screws for rack plate"
A whole lot of loosening and retightening! The noise is gone (for now) at least.
