Hi, can anyone advise on size of retaining bolts x 6 and where i can get them as not supplied with replacement half shaft, also are normal metric tools suitable for carrying out job
Someone told me that replacing the front drive shaft bearing (A1129800115) on 4MATIC cars is good preventive maintenance especially on high mileage cars. Has anyone done this on his own? The part is pretty cheap but I'm not sure if it's easily DIY-able.
