Hiya all, how much lower is the clk w208 avantgarde over the ellegance?

Hi can anyone advise on correct height from centre of front wheel to wheel arch on 02 210 e430 a/v estate,or what age/miles do springs need too be replaced as a guide. thanks

Hi all, my C32 feels a bit tired and soggy suspension-wise. It's a 53 plate on 66k miles. I've already had new tyres fitted, which helped a lot, as did a track rod end. But the dampers are tired and it all just feels a bit wobbly and non-confidence-inspiring. I was on the phone to Ollie...

Can anyone shed some light (sic) on how to fix headlamp height adjuster system on a W210 (Halogen headlamps)? I've checked the pipes leading to the headlamps they all seem secure. Purple pipe is secure at roller switch. Vacuum pump is working fine (central locking works). There is a translucent...

Anyone know the correct unladen ride height for a 1994 W124 E220? Mine has 205 R15 tyres on at the moment (I think) if that makes any difference. I presume I measure from ground to edge of centre of wheel arch?

Hello, I suspect that my W202 Estate has sagging rear springs. The tyres are 195/55/15. Can anyone tell me the factory height of the body at the rear? Or the maximum difference between the front and rear gap between tyre and wheel arch? All the shock absorbers are new (no thanks to...

Please help as I just had the front springs changed as one was broken but now the car feels okay to drive but looks high... is there anyway to check that the correct ones were fitted?

Today I had the day off so set about changing the front springs and shocks on my SL500. Suffice to say that it was a fair amount of work as I didn't have the special Mercedes spring compressors. Anyway, the long and short of it is that having changed the springs and the somewhat tired...

I know this has been covered before and I have tried searching the old posts but have failed to find the references to the calculations chart.:doh::dk: I can work out the points from my build spec if I know where to find the chart. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be...

Hi, If you dont use the car for a few days is it normal for he car to lower itself? Mine seems about 1" from the tyre. Thanks w220 2000 S500

Does anyone know the difference in ride height between a standard W203 with no sport pack and a W203 with AMG sport pack or normal sport pack as i assume they have same suspension set up?? Cheers....

I'm just doing my research and wondering how much I can drop a w202 '98 c220 before the tyres will start rubbing the arches? Seems most lowering springs offer 40mm - 50mm. Is this going to be too much as it may be a while before I upgrade the shocks? TIA :)

Hi all. I require some advice as i am just about to fit some Ebach lowering springs to my 2002 C270 Elegance. The problem is that i dont know what spring seat/shims to fit as I think the standard ones will still make the car sit to high with the Ebach springs fitted. I have been told that the...

Hi all, seeking some advice please if anyone can help. i took my e280cdi sport for a check as it was making a creaking noise on turning. it turned out to be a faulty strut so both front struts replaced under warranty. further than that upper and lower front arms replaced as well for various...

Ladies and Gentlemen, as you can see Im brand new here but very much glad to be part of the community. A few months ago I purchased an old (1992) 300d and enjoy very much pootling around in her. I had noticed the ride height was a little low particularly when driving over sleeping policement...

The front airmatic ride height sensors are very obvious on the 221 S class and can be seen attached to the top wishbone through the gap between the front wheel and the wing. I have taken a rear wheel off and cannot for the life of me see the rear sensors. They are not attached to any of the...

Does anyone know how to adjust the self levelling ride height on a W210 estate? Put shorter springs in the back and the self levelling brings the car back up to the normal height pre lowering, 2 inches above the tyre :eek: Any help/diagrams will be appreciated

Hi all, Everytime I go through road pumps or have a turn I hear the seat belts height adjustments clicking and ticking,I tried to get used to this sound but I couldn't,is this normal? is there any work around to eliminate this sound or reduce it? My star is W124 E220 made in 1995. Sub_zero

According to http://www.earthtools.org my home is a measly 4m above sea level :crazy: Should I be worried

Dear Friends, please could someone with an avantgarde W203 sedan (better if a C270 like mine) post here ride height value. Please to specify if the car is equipped with optional sport chassis (mine have the code 486 "sport chassis" :D that if I'm not wrong have lower spring and 225 tyres on...
