Hey guys!
This is my first time posting. I need help in identifying this sound on the front end of my 2006 C230 Sport. I bought this at a dealership 2 days ago and I noticed it making a noise. I took it back to the dealership and they said “the only thing we see is that the front left bushing is bone dry so we added some grease”. Well as I drove it some more I notice 80% of the time when I take a hard left, back up on a slant or brake harder then usual the car makes this noise (the noise you hear when we are turning the wheels from left to right). When we push down on the car when the wheels are turned left you hear what we guess are the bushings. Here is the video. Any help would be appreciated. I got this 3 days ago and now I’m thinking maybe I should return it.

 

Hello and welcome to the forum Matt - that sounds like sway bar bushings from the video. I'm attaching a link to our site's DIY tech articles on the procedure to replace them. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
