Screeching while turning the wheels

I smell rubbing? Or messed up suspension parts, lol

Maybe try lifting the front car on a jack, have a friend turn the steering wheel one way and the other, and you check out if there's any scraping or whatnot.

Check the power steering fluid level to start with.

Where's Newt to pipe in about 2000 S430's. He loves 'em.

So much he would marry them. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Haha fortunately nothing like the C-class. The power steering fluid level seems to be fine with no leaks. I'm thinking it could be something more along the lines of suspension components. Maybe ball joints or might it be anything else along those lines?

Divorce is always an option as well

Balljoints don't screech from my experience. Might be the power steering pump like Chutoyy mentioned.

True.. How would that noise be induced by going over bumps in that case? I noticed today that it does it going over speed bumps as well.

That's a tough one. Is it a constant noise or intermittent? Does it matter if you turn the wheel?

Intermittent.. It happens when I go over small bumps/potholes on the road and also speed bumps. It also happens when I'm standing still or going very slowly and turning the wheel all the way to either side. When I'm driving and turning, it doesn't do it. So basically the noise comes durning full turning while stopped & over bumps while rolling.

Balljoints and also check the bushings.

Bushings = control arm bushings right?

If you were able to get a vid of some sort....
