AMGC43C55

hello i am the owner of a 1999 C43 and a 2005 C55. i am a tech at a mercedes dealer. last week the C63 came in to the shop to PDI. i was called over to take a look. all i have to say is WOW it is better in person. i started it up, the noise from this car is nothing i have ever heard from a mercedes (CLK black not included). when the car warmed up i hit the gas and took it up to about 4500rpm and i fell in love (i have to have one). so at the end of the day i went home (my wife was home early) i asked if she would like to go and see the new C63 (i live 1 mile from work). the car was at detail, the car is black on black fully loaded. went to talk to my friend in sales to get the key. my wife started to look over the car, she poped the hood, opened all the doors looked in the trunk and played with the comand. i asked if she would like to start up the car (she sead is a ducks *** water tight). she started it up and got out of the car to walk around. she told me "this is it" i smiled. i told her to rev it up a little and again the noise from this car is unreal. we turned the car off and locked it up. gave the keys to my friend and said good night. on the away home she started to talk to me about the C43 she said it is 8 years old the miled are geting high. she said the C43 has to go we need the C63. i told her in about 3 years we can get one used with low miles and about 20,000 less. the thing is my C43 was my first AMG, i have put hard work in keeping this car cherry i just put in about 800$ and about 1 1/2 days work in it. i replace all the spark plugs, valve covers and breathers, oil cooler seals, oil presser port seal, lower control arm bushings, motor mounts, flex disks, rear sub-frame mounts, rear diff side seals, fuel and air filters. it was hard work but it is my baby. when she said lets sell the C43 my hart stoped. but at the end of the day nothing is forever. (so i will sell th c 55)

I have to ask you and hope you can PLEASE help me. I replaced the passenger front bushing. The bushing seems like it did sit all the way down. BUT, I get noises like and old door when the hinges need lubing. I sprayed some belt ease spray which is for belts to make them stop squeaking and the noise from the bushing stops for 2 days. Than it starts all over. Do you think I needed to sit the bushing down more and thats why it squeaks..... I tried it twice, once with some synthetic grease and the other time without the gread and both times the squeakes came out after a few days!

So I'm thinking it might not be completely all the way down? I did not use any special tools for this but the bushing did go down when I put pressure on it. Any help is greatly appreciated from you or anyone else.

Thanks!
