    My W211 has a bubble in the leather armrest. Perhaps better described as stretched? Anyone know a way to fix this? Would putting a hairdryer on it help the leather retract?

    Hi, my W203 C32 AMG needs new upper and lower front suspension arms fitted. 4 hours labour. Am considering DIYing it. How hard a job is this?
