joints

The cv joints have gone on both sides. Does anyone know how hard it is to replace them?

Hi, Can anyone suggest somewhere to get a new CV joint, everywhere i've looked online don't seem to list CLK only A CLass and Vito's which are a tad useless Thanks

Hi Any idea of how much should it cost to replace all 4 lower ball joints on 2004 ML 350. (labour only) Got quote for 20 quid a piece, does it sound right? Cheers, Dan

Hi, I'm new here and I need some opinions on whether the cost of servicing my SL55 was reasonable. I had 3 main works done on it. 1. Gearbox conductor plate changed and serviced. 2. Both rear window regulators refitted and drains unblocked. 3. Front lower ball joints and both lower spring link...

hi guys I have a 2000 Mercedes CL500 Coupe, front lower ball joints need replacing anyone done this job and any tips please Regards

my new(to me) 1989 190e has advisorys on its MOT for lower ball joints. I have never driven a 190e before and so I cant really judge whether the steering feels particularly odd, it is quiet in operation, and pretty evenly weighted if a bit heavy Looking around it seems the parts are...

I have a got a clunking so I presumed either drop links or lower ball joints. I put the car up on the ramp and the drop links look pretty new, so gave the wheels a wobble and the drivers side has a fair bit of play. But looking on GSF and Eurocarparts I am not 100% sure which ones I...

I have just done mine today,and what an easy job they were to do. I have done many Ball joints on many different cars,and the Clk's are one of the easiest ones that I have done 1 hour tops, and no need to remove the lower wishbone. what a car it keeps on impressing me.:rock:

Afternoon all, the next think on the list is to change the ball joints and link pipe as shown as number 92 in the attached picture. Do you chaps have any idea how much this part is at all (from both Merc & alternative supplier)?!

For a year, I felt my steering was not what it could have been. It always seemed slightly heavy. self centreing, included. I always seemed to be applying a permanant, minute, right hand down. :Until: The MOT. It was noted, on the advisory. That there was slight play in both lower ball joints. I...

Hi friends, just failed the MOT on my '03 w203 due to excessive play on the offside tracking rod and ball joint. Decided to get both sides replaced: MB stealership estimate £385 excl geometry and Indy says £175 inc basic tracking. should i go with the indy or shop around? by the...

Hi all, the old merc is going into the garage in the morning with a terrible squeaking noise from the NSF I had thought it was a dry bushing but after some lubrication it still squeaks......reading some posts it sounds like it may be the ball joints................... Can anyone advise as it...

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...

Hi All I recently has a wheel alignment check and was advised to replace my nearside upper wishbone ball-joint (too much negative camber, inside of tyre goosed). A quick call to Mercedes and I cannot buy an upper ball joint, I have to buy the whole arm at £118 + VAT :eek: Does anyone...

Hi everyone, I was looking back through a Mercedes invoice and found that my car needed new Ball joints at the front, steering rack gaitors and track rod ends replacing. This was 3yrs ago and I do not believe they have been changed as I do not have any paper work. Could the MB Specialist I...
