Hi,
I've just replaced shocks x 4 and springs x4 on my w211 03' avant saloon (sachs), but ride is still incredibly bumpy. Do the shocks bed in after a while?
I did adjust the height on the front shocks with the circular clip to match the height on the original shocks. This distance being...
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?
My beloved W124 260e finaly needs all new shocks and springs. MBZ dealer price for the parts was astronomical (rear shocks over £400 - EACH). I have been looking at Euro and GSF websites, and even callled them but they don't have anything. Am i missing something here? Who should i call to get a...

Sachs Mercedes-Benz | Euro Car Parts UK?s No.1 Car Parts Retailer

Anschler Mercedes-Benz | Euro Car Parts UK?s No.1 Car Parts Retailer...

On a C230K Sport prefacelift 1997
my daily commute has over 100 speed humps and I have to drive dead slow into my driveway otherwise I scrape my front bumper so I was thinking about jacking the ride height up a bit as it seems to sit dead low. Was just thinking about...
Hello all,
First off, this is my first post in this forum. I'm very excited to be here!
My 1998 E300D needs new front shocks. I am having a hard time finding the correct part number though; all shocks I found from aftermarket manufacturers don't seem to fit cars with electronic stability...
Hi good morning,does anyone know where I can get some new rear shock absorbers for my 2003 SL350 and how much they will cost.I am not too happy with the hard ride coming from the back of my car especially when I go over pot holes.Some guidance please.:doh:
Hello everyone

Hi All,
Been considering replacing the tired shocks on my '98 E320 . ECP have shocks branded "Anschier" at £20.47 each or the rears and £53.40 for the fronts. Seems too cheap and probably is. I would be interested to know if anyone has used these shocks and any comments/opinions.
If the vehicle...
Need to replace my front and rear shocks on my 2001 CLK55 and was wondering whether to buy the original AMG shocks or Bilstein B6/B8 shocks.
I know the Originals are made by Bilstein, but are the B6/B8 shocks matching or should I stick with the original AMG ones. I dont want to make it worse...
My CLK 55 AMG (W208) is approaching 100k miles and I think is still on the original Bilstein dampers so they are probably due for replacement. The springs have already been changed for Eibach Lowering springs and I'm looking for some dampers to match. I was thinking of changing Koni Sport...
Put the new car through an MOT test today all fine save 2 broken rear springs and rear shocks are leaking oil. So do I buy new MB quote for shocks currently £315 each plus £51 per spring plus fitting or look at second hand parts considering the age of the vehicle?
Advice appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
I've a 2002 E220 CDI S210 (estate). The rear suspension is self levelling - hydraulic type and in the recent MOT, there is an advice of light oil misting on the rear shocks.
The rear shocks are quite expensive, so my local mechanic has asked me to check if there are any cheaper...
Our current E arrived with 124,000 on the clock and I knew when test driving it we would need to replace some suspension components as there was the odd rattle and knock from the front end.
Various front ball joins and control arms later the front end seemed more 'together' but there was...
Guys, I can't find anything so far on here for this so opinions/advice would be good.
After a B service my merc guys pointed out that my rear shocks are getting soft, its not major yet but i will obviously be sorting it.. they can supply oem Sachs shocks for £65+vat+fitting.
As some of you...
ECP only list one Sachs front shock for all 211's whilst MB have a specific variant for the sport. Given the current ones are likely very tired at 126k miles so I'm reasoning that anything new must be better, what's the jury's verdict on new OE v the (much cheaper) Sachs aftermarket equivalent?
