bush

Hi guys, mercedes have told me my thrust arm bush has burst and needs replacing but the car drives fine, i spoke to an independent specialist and he said its very unlikely, as he's only seen them go in older cars, mine is 2011 so not too old. I would like to make sure its gone before...

Hi All First post on here so greetings, I hope someone can shed some light for me. My car is a 2003 C200 and I have a leak from the gearbox pilot bush. I have done quite a bit of research on this and various forums and am aware that this is quite common. Also, replacing the pilot bush...

Does anyone one know where to get one of these bushes from on the accelerator assembly, it's on a r107 280sl.

Changed out my rear sub-frame bushes at the weekend with guidance from another post somewhere. Glad I did 'cause they were knackered. The centre was totally ripped out of the O/S on and the N/S was not just as bad. Got replacement Lemforder ones from Mister Auto for the very reasonable sum of...

Where the main front air strut bolts to the lower arm is a bush. mb do not list is and neither do europarts. Any ideas where I can get one as don't want to change the arm just for a bush?

Hello Just a quick question. One of my anti roll bar bushes failed today on my 1991 300E 24v Saloon. I am looking to buy a new pair of bushes. I don't think my car has sportline suspension, it doesn't mention it in any of the documentation that I have and also it certainly doesn't feel very...

Looks like I have a creaking torsion bar bush on the off side front of my W221 I have purchased some epoxy resin to glue the bush to the mount in order to stop the dreadful noise it makes when going over undulations in the road

I've just sorted out the gearbox ECU on my 01 C270 Auto and now need to fit the replacement Pilot Bush-gearoil is getting past the present one. Any link or help at all with this would be gratefully received.

So one slightly annoying thing about my 500sec is that the gas pedal seemed to go down quiet a bit before hitting anything and operating the throttle, and I don't think I am getting full throttle. Someone who is into old benzes told me that it has a two-position kickdown, and I think I am only...

Ok have not been on here for a while :fail anyway having just had an MOT on my car I noticed the rear diff was missing a bush :eek: the left hand side has a bush secured with a torque type bolt but nothing in the right hand side !! I take it their should be one fitted , the car is off the road...

Has anyone successfully removed the noisy inner bush from the wishbone on a w208 coupe 2002? I am going to attempt this as the part is now removed and sitting on the bench and I do not have the expensive removal tool and wondered if there's a cheaper way to get this out as fitting seems much...

Hi. I seem to have bent the pins whilst trying to fit a new pilot bush on my faithful W202 I was working of a jack and axle stands hence the bloody bent pins,(couldn't see properly) I have taken a photo and noticed between points 2 & 6 there looks like a pin has sheeted of, Before I get the pins...

Hi I had a nasty leek coming from the pilot bush on my W202. I bought a replacement and am having difficultly fitting it I know it should be a 30 minute job,,,! The new pilot bush does not seem to go in the recess all the way, I have even tried to fit the old one but am having the same issue, I...

has anyone done the anti roll bar bushes on a a140 168 :confused:

Just had a call from the MOT test centre advising failure on "rear suspension arm rubber mounting deteriorated ,resulting in excessive movement". Anyone ever tackled this? They reckon it will involve complete removal of axle. Is this correct or is there an easier (diy ?) solution . Also anyone...

So a rear damper bush is rattling. A replacement damper is stupidly expensive (think near £500) - and merc don't list replacement bushes - are the bushes replaceable??? Is there a part that's easily available? C320CDI with dynamic handling pack...

I'm looking at replacing the bushes for the rear swing arms of my w124, one on the swing arm itself and the other on the hub carrier. Looking around on-line, the bush extractor kits that sell for £100+ seem like they could be easily replicated with a length of threaded bar and 6 inches of...

Hi All, I am taking my W203 saloon ('51 plate) to have a rear bush replaced, the one nearest the wheel on the lower suspension arm. I am using a reputable mechanic that I have used for servicing and stuff like this before. Can anybody suggest how much I should end up paying for this job...

Hi.. When fitting suspension bushes, would I be correct in thinking that they should NOT be tightened up until the car is back on its wheels and the suspension is loaded onto its normal position.. To my mind if you tighten them up with the wheels dangling then you pre twist the rubber to an...
