Having had the lower near side suspension arm replaced FOC I still have a slight knocking noise but much reduced and only usually noticeable on rough tracks and very poor and broken roads. My next line of attack was to do the cheap and hopefully simple things so I have orderded anti roll bar...

CLK was in for a service and garage has reported that there is slight perishing of the front thrust arm bushes. Not bad enough to fail MOT as yet though. Any ideas how much to fix and how quickly will they deteriorate? Russ

Has anyone done the replacement of the fore mentioned? I was given an 'advisory' on the MOT that they had started to deteriorate - though no play.

Does anybody know where to get and the part number for the rear anti roll bar bushes on a w203 c180k coupe. I have googled arb bushes and can only find the front ones.

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?.

Are they easy to get pressed out and then in? I need one for a rear torque arm. Mercedes do not seem (they say) to supply bushes, just complete arms. I need one for a rear torque arm (2103503706). The one I need is the outer one. Anybody have a part number.

Hi, I'm thinking of replacing all the bushes in the rear suspension. The car has done 135k so is due for it. Now, my question is, what are the opinions of which would be easier and worth while? I'm, thinking of buying a second hand subframe, sprucing it up, fitting all new bushes and arms...

Hi all Not a regular poster but here for some help and advice. I have a E320 04 plate that has been squeaking at the front end. I knew it was suspension related and in all probability a dry bush of sorts. This weekend this has turned into a "knock" when turning the wheel and pulling away and...
