Am having a set of Amg alloys refurb'd and they could do with new centre caps and bolts.
Can anyone recommend the best place for this? Is it going to be a Main stealer only thing?
I'm looking to renew the brakes on my W203 200CDI. The Haynes manual (yeah, I know) says the caliper bolts are not to be reused and must be renewed as well.
Is this necessary? I've never come across it on any other cars I've owned. If it is are they readily available from the usual places...
I recenly bought from another member a set of Ronal Carlsson wheels for my 2004 W209 CLK 320 cabriolet ( thanks matey they are in great condition).
Today I finally had time to start to fit them and I seem to have a bolt issue.
The standard MB bolts on the front do not go far enough in to hold...
Few months ago I've had an emergency on a motorway abroad - puncture.Cut the long story short I've broken 2 wheel spanners and 1 ratchet trying to undo the bolts there.
Is this a common problem in Vito or even other models?:dk:
Just want to find a solution if there's any...
I’ve just had my front wheels off to take a look see at the tyres, disks… and I noticed the security bolt was little more than hand tight on both fronts so I re-torqued all the wheels and found all the security bolts weren’t anywhere near the 110Nm spec!!!
Is this common practice? :eek:
I've just bought a set of 16x8j et34 wheels from an R129 to use on my W124 estate, and was wondering whether the standard wheel bolts currently used on my standard 15s will work o.k?
If anyone else is using wheels the same size on a w124 I'd be interested to hear your experiences, any...

My W203 will be treated to refurbed alloys in the near future, and I'm planning to replace the rusty wheel bolts at the same time.
I recall RAD rust resistant bolts from AlloyWheelsDirect getting a mention before - anyone got a set and care to share their experience?
Any alternatives I...
Went to do a trans fluid and filter change Saturday. Had read here the bolts sometimes snap and it's very often the one nearest the exhaust pipe, so I tried that one first. Snap! Bu99er. Going to be a drill out job so I'll let a garage do it on the ramps. Do you think a regular garage will...

Hi all,
I got a great deal on a set of 17" 5spoke AMG alloys and tyres from eBay yesterday, but upon trying to fit them, the bolts on my std 16" (horrific) alloys were too long.
Apparently, the DCP offset on the bolts i have is too large and i need a shorter set of bolts, where the new...
Hello all, Ive got a 97 W202 with standard steel wheels atm.
I've picked up some 18" AMG replicas off flebay for £150, they had just been sandblasted, so i primed them up and im just about to give them a lick of Gloss Black, on a silver car thought might look quite good.

Hi,
can anyone recommend the best place to get a replacement "key" for OEM locking wheel bolts?
The guys who fitted my winter tyres must have used an airgun to put the wheels on as the key has been shredded. My indy got the locking nuts off as part of a service so I'm back on normal bolts...
Hi all.... it's been a long time since i've been on this forum. I now have another mecedes with a question. I'm repairing leaking injector seals. I bought a couple of new clamps and stretch bolts from MB but mine seems to have studs and nuts to secure the clamps. Does this sound correct or has...
I'm trying to find a set of wheel bolts that have s splined socket drive for my SL55. It's got SL65 two piece AMG IVs which use a 14mmX1.5mm pitch X 27mm long with a radiused or ball seat. I can find these for aftermarket wheels but these have a 60 degree taper seat. The standard Merc bolts look...

My car has those annoying long wheel bolts that are double the length of a normal one so the chrome caps sit flush with the wheels
