W203 steering "tock tock" sound
Recently, my W203 C180 had some weird sounds that sounded like tick tick/tock tock sound coming from the steering column when i steered...
I took it to Star Black (http://www.starblack.com.sg/) and the problem was narrowed down to 2 possibilities.
First was that the front lower arms were worn and needed replacing and also, the screws for the undercarriage needed lubrications.
I did these 2 and finally, the problem is resolved.
Do leave comments if you have similar issues and it wasn't these two problems...
Like to thank the folks at Star Black who were very professional and friendly in helping me troubleshoot on this issue!
