i just bought a 2000 s500 and it seems like the drivers front shock or spring is squeaking when i make turns or hit a bump. does anyone know how expensive this problem is to fix or what it is???

I also have a 2000 S500 and had a shock replaced. I think it was just over $1,000

Airmatic really bad if you don't have a warranty very expensive to fix. I had to replace both in the front. One of them was making a clanking noise over bumps and the other one was not working properly. If you like driving with the sport mode this can cause your airmatic shocks to go a little quicker (around 25K to 30K ) they usually need to be replaced. I was driving and my dashboard started to flash red to pull over car was to low. I don't know how many miles you have but I sure hope you have warranty.

Hope this helps.

Mine Flashes too. How much did it cost you to fix the problem?

Don't assume it's the airmatic strut. Squeaking during turns can be caused by control arms and the like, as well. Determine the source before you make expensive replacements.
