Many professionals tried to diagnose the strange speed dependent noise coming from somewhere from the front or middle of the car. Including Mercedes authorized service with specific request to find out and remove the "kvack kvack kvack" -noise, typically between 20-70 kmh. It was a sporadic noise, not always present. It took about 3 months to finally solve it. By accident.
I had the front brake disks and pads changed. After removing the right side disk it could be seen that the brake dust shield was loose. Could not be seen without removing the disk. Now the car is finally silent again.
I wanted to share this, perhaps obvious discovery to many, so that no one else is forced to drive with "kvack kvack" car without checking the brake dust shields.
