Struts/steering noise?
Got the noise that sounds like rubbing noise after lowered the front with H&R springs. Unassembled the struts and lubricated struts mount, the noise has gone for a few months and now it's comes back. MB dealer has checked it but not sure what's wrong. At the time the dealer checked it, the noise was not that bad. I was asked to bring it back when the noise get worst. So far I've paid the struts installment twice, alignment after each time, and a diagnosis. Of course I will have to pay again if I bring it back to the dealer for diagnostic. Any w218 owner had this issue before? At low speed when making sharp turn, I have that rubbing noise. Thanks.

It's brand new thread, sorry we don't have the resolution yet. If I had to do all over again, I would replace the strut bearings when I lower the CLS. It's not expensive and we can save the labor. I lubricated them and the noise has gone for a couple month before tit's come back. I am thinking not to do alignment this time.
