I'd say it's the self leveling suspension.

Thats a good article on it. It's for the S600 but it's the same setup in all W140's with SLS.

I had a 85' Benz that was very squeeky. It was attributed to the old rubber components in the suspension. They referred to it as a dry rot and to fix it was pricey and not totally worth it. Something to consider, your car is 13 years old now. Good luck with it!
