my suspension squeaks when i get out of the car and when i get into the car. when i go over bumps sometimes. i also think my rear sway bar is hitting something else under the car on the left side


these sounds are really really annoying... makes me really not wanna fix up my next car next year

how do i get rid of the squeaking????

IdriveFast

i took my car to my bodyshop and asked them to fix it


and then two days later, the sounds came back!!!


what do I do now??

Prasith32

actually I have the same exact problem.

My suspension squeaks over bumps and loading and unloading the car.

I think it is the sway bar bushings.

I'm also having a similar problem. I'm going to take it to the dealer tomorrow. I'll let you know if it works out.

I have the same problem. Took the car to the dealer. It was the lower control arm bushings. The part was not in stock and I have to bring the car back on the 14th. For now they sprayed some oil on it and it sounds better.

I have had a problem with my bmw doing the same thing. bushings are probally just wearing out faster since your cars are lowered.. is MB going to cover for free or no?

BMW always pretty much told me hell no and smacked me and told me to get out of the shop lol..

i also have the same problem......but i am afraid that the warranty since i have coilover.......btw, mine occured before i installed the coilover

IdriveFast

so if i replace the lower control arm bushings, then everything should b quiet again?

also, i am hearing a thumpign sound that the dealership says is coming from the swaybar hitting something on the undercarriage


anybody else have this problem?

villy

My problem ended up being a worn sway bar linkage, not the swaybar bushings.

Mine too. Tell them to check the linkages, but it might take some time to find the right part. Apparently, the AMG has a different link than the regular C-class sedan.

IdriveFast

ok, they lubed it and it still squeaks... this is getting really really annoying

so do I just ask them to replace the linkages? or bushing?

tom incredibie

i have the same issue. i think its common in all C classes. *shrugs* had it since day 1. ive complained and they give me the "its normal" line

villy

My car is back from the dealer and is completely squeak free so it's definitely not normal. The linkage and the bushings were both replaced.

IdriveFast

would you mind telling me how much it cost to replace both the linkages and bushings?

villy

It was a warranty repair so I don't have any figures. Sorry.

My car is also back from the dealer. The rattling/creaking in the front end is gone. They replaced the sway bar bushings. Here is the parts list:
