My MB E320 CDI 211 (2003) is making a helluva noise from the front offside wheel, thumping (which I can feel on through the steering wheel) and a scraping sound on non bumpy roads at slow speeds. The scraping sound is almost like an exhaust heat shield is loose but it isn't that. When I brake or accelerate there is a loud creaking/sqeeking sound. The noise can come and go. Some days its not there at all, next day its there all the time. The car still handles well though and doesn't bounce which suggests its not a shock but hey, it might be. I've looked underneath and can't see anything loose. It may be two separate problems. Any suggestions?
