C220 CDI Issue - Front banging noise
Alright folks,
Wondering if any of you have had this problem before.
So there is a banging noise coming from the front. If i go over the smallest of cracks in the road i feel it and hear it.
I dont think its the shocks or suspension as it passed MOT not that long ago and its didnt get picked up there.. I wanted to know is there bushings or anything above the actual suspension maybe they have gone?
Hopefully there is someone can help on here
Cheers in advance.

Just wondered how many Kms the car has done ?.
A visual inspection of the Mcpherson struts for oil leaks is needed . If the oil has leaked out the suspension will bottom, also the front suspension bushings will show oil leakage if they are worn or damaged.
Good luck,
JC
