Hi could anybody point me in the direction of a good parts supplier, I am after a front and rear propshaft coupling and center bearing for my 2001 E320CDI but cannot get the right part on ebay. They seem to do every other make model and year but not mine. I have been in touch with Blackburn Mercedes and they want me to sell a kidney to finance the repair of my propshaft ! I have tryed a few online parts dealers withouy any luck some saying its Mercedes dealer part only. I have scalpel in hand can you help !!!!
 
Whats the part number , sometimes googling the part number can throw up leads .

Hi Mark, I'm also in Burnley (well close to). Can't really help much with the propshaft but I suggest giving Ian Walker a mail or call, he's registered on here as 124works. He's over in Kirkham and comes well recommended as a good indie.
 
Hi The reg is LY51 HFS, and the chassis number is **********443310 would that help any ?

Yup - That confirms the ones above, are listed as suitable for your car :thumb:

out of interest, what price do Merc quote (i guess Lemforder or Febi make the original ones)

Hi Front 87 +vat and rear £75 + vat and £52-50 +vat for centre bearing.I also had a quote of £79.00 + £7.50 carriage from united-auto parts for just the 2 couplings but when I ordered they told me 1 of the parts is not in stock until near the end of January so I am going to ask for a refund. Do you have all 3 parts in stock ? Thanks
 
All the quoted MB prices , you can take 10% off and get them from Inchcape.

- The Front Coupling is in stock ready to be dispatched
- The Rear Coupling is special order (although we are showing 1 in Colliers Wood which can be transfered)
- The Centre bearing is special order (although we have some stock showing around the company which can be transfered)
 
Give them a ring then.
