Front end squeaks
My 2007 S600 with 63K miles is squeaking from the front end. Sounds like a bad bushing or an old lady. Anybody got suggestions? I replaced the left forward lower control arm about 10 months ago when the rubber boot tore (can't replace just the boot, mercedes claims you have to replace the whole control arm). I don't want to ignore it because I am planning a 1000 mile trip very soon. I would hate to get on the road and have a problem.

Lower control arms most likely..... need to replace the complete arm.
