Any resolutions of this problem? My wife's 2017 f48 (around 60k on a clock) started making exact same noise on driver's side. All started last winter, getting worse by now. At the beginning it was also just when you turning steering wheel left/right on low speed. Now it make creeking/squealing noise even in stop&go traffic. Checked/tight top nuts on a strut - they were just fine, my manipulation didn't do any good or bad. Removed the wheel, visually inspected suspension, all looks normal. Jacked up front left suspension (to mimic normal load) and tried to replicate the issue by applying force on different suspension components with pry bar - couldn't replicate the sound. Again, I'm not a professional mechanic so I might miss right point where to push, but from my judgement it really feels like the problem comes from uptop. Someone did mention about common issue with strut mount. Any details on that? What exactly is the problem and how to fix it? Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
