Yep! you can vent!... yes noise can be 'natural' to cars but what is really pisssing is mis-diagnosis that these so called professionals do which in most cases come with a huge cost. At one point I was made to buy all 4 shocks for my E46 when I was really bloke just because I complained to the dealer that Iam having some noise when cornering... I took the car for a spin only to realize the sound is still there! with all the 4 new shocks still shinning.... what the hell was going on!!!? Took back the car, went to the Workshop Manager, complained and cursed like a pirate. We went to the car told his boys to lift it overhead, within 2 minutes underneath... there is the problem! Control arms rubbers are finished (play in sockets)... What!?.... yep... you need both sides! Fine replace. Now what about my spoilt shocks and my money for new ones... "Sir, these boys sometimes dont check thoroughly... sorry!"

Finally car fixed but spent unnecessarily.

ajthedy try to get another opinion/fix from another place.
