it could just be the lubrication of the steering part or worse the power steering pump. also, could be the shock absorber mounting brushings is dry which needs to lubricate.have you checked your power steering fluid level? any leaks?locating the noise should take a lot of experience in dealing with it. knowing the parts and its uses is a prerequisite to help locating the cause. i suggest you have it check by your mechanic to investigate the noise. goodluck and welcome here in M-BenzForum. hope you enjoy your stay here.
