    W201 shocks & rear sphere life

    Trying to sort all that will need to be done on my 190 2.5 16 suspension. The spheres were fitted just over three years ago - time for a change when everything else is being done? The shocks look old, but aren't leaking. Records show the n/s/r shock changed in 2008, time to refresh all?
