My C270CDI (04) with 40K has developed a creaky rear suspension noticeable when going over speeed bumps as the weight goes on and off the suspension relatively quickly. It has been into MB Kettering about 5 times now and they have replaced a top suspension bush on the rear offside and a front suspension bush, checked the suspension over many times but cannot track down what is wrong. Car seems to wallow over the speed bumps too, not coming back down evenly? Any ideas, my thoughts have been the anti-roll bars but I am assured they are fine.:confused: .

The antiroll bar links and bushes can wear, does the car squeak if you push the back down by hand.

Hi Malcolm

My W210 E230 1996 Estate does squeak when I push it back down by hand. And I notice the rear wheel arch of the passenger side falls lower than that of the driver side. Does this mean the problem lies on the antiroll bar links and bushes? Any possibility that the rear suspension absorbers are faulty? Please advise if I can fix it on a DIY manner.

Let me know if you want any further information you may need.

Regards
Sean
