Yes, I had the top bolt for a new strut (no more double nuts) loosen on a 124.
It may be time for struts and bearings also.
Can the top strut mounts be a source of play, and produce a
knock/click? If I back up and brake, then go forward and brake
(while parking, for instance), I get a distinct single knock.
I also have play when pulling/pushing on the top of each front
wheel, but no play at the 9 & 3 o'clock position.
New: inner bushings, sway bar bushings, drag link and right tie rod
assembly, ball joints.
I think the struts and mounts haven't been replaced since I bought the car.
