Mercedes C200K post 2000 - johnsheldon

The road test mentions one instance of "accelerated suspension bush wear problems" due to poor UK roads. How would this materialise? Mine has developed an annoying sqeak from the front drivers side suspension. It can disappear overnight but soon returns after the car is running. Water or WD40 provide only a temporary relief. The noise is obvious if the car is rocked.
Any help would be appreciated due to lack of main dealer interest.
