I ordered up two replacement front lower rear control arms (the one the strut acts on) for my '05 CL500. When they arrived, I noticed that the chassis end mount is slotted and notched inside - so I'm presuming there's an adjustment mechanism.
Is there a process for changing these without...
Hi All,
Just pre-empting a noise coming from my front suspension that I hope is nothing but tyres. Howver if it is the worst case I may need a lower control arm/wishbone and I have been looking around and ECP do two different ones a Lemforder and a non branded - there is quite a difference in...

CLK was in for a service and garage has reported that there is slight perishing of the front thrust arm bushes.

Any ideas how much to fix and how quickly will they deteriorate?

Just a heads up to anyone experiencing the same problem and some advice !
The left indicator on my W210 stayed on one night (while the mrs was driving) so I had a little look when she got home and found that indeed the indicator stayed on continiously when in the "neutral" position...
:(I have just received a rotor arm and distributor cap from Europarts (I am now waiting for them to get back to me). They sent the wrong parts. I ordered both parts by Bosch, alas they have sent me a Bosch rotor arm and a Bremi distributor cap. So while I am waiting for them to ring me I...
hi all,
My first post and what would seem to be very stupid question, I picked up a 98 C250 TD recently in nick. In going to change the wiper blade I bought the recommended 24" blade. It is definitely too long for the arm as it stands, more than 3 inches over the previous one.
Is there some...
Does anyone know how long it would take a garage roughly to do these each side?, they need doing and want to get them done as soon as my car is back from the bodyshop, I don't know if the airmatic complicates this sort of thing, or as it's at the bottom it should be unaffected?.
