I'm getting more and more noise from my front struts. Anyone have luck lubricating the mounts/top bearing or should I just replace it all (strut and top bearing)? Seems like it is still on its original struts at 153k. Can't complain about that.

About replacing - BMW originals are about $300 per.
Bilstein HD are like $230 each. Anything else that might match the quality and feel?

Thanks!
The Sachs original shocks are pretty good. I was able to get my set from Rockauto for $180 a piece which is very reasonable.
