W211 Suspension issues

[Craig L]

Hello i'm new to here & was looking help.. I have a 2007 E class 220 with approx 68000 miles which has deveĺoped creaking noises from the front end which isn't happening all the time. It is quite loud & happens when turning & over uneven road its like someone bouncing on a bed.. The garage has said all the suspension, joints etc is ok & can't find the root of the problem. I only have the car 7 months but took a 2 year warranty so want it fixed.. Anyone any ideas?? Thanx.. Craig

Good morning, Craig and welcome to the MBClub forums.
There's masses of help and experience within the forum membership, but you might get a better answer sooner if you were to repost in the "Wheels, Tyres, Brakes & Suspension" forum.

Regards, lim

I have a 2007 W211 aswell and had the same problem last year and it was cured by replacing both front lower ball joints and front suspension springs..well one spring had broken for a while and had realised it. If your suspension is ok then is say it's the lower ball joints

What you seem to be saying is that you hear those crackling noises when you go on bad pavemented roads, or when you are turning the wheel for a parking manouver. Is that right?
