    W124 front spring compressor

    Found a broken road spring on the front of the car today and wanted to get it sorted straight away.

    Boot Spring cover on C220 saloon

    Just got my car back after a rear end shunt and can anyone tell me please if the rear boot springs should have a top cover over the springs. I don't remember being able to see the springs but I'm not sure, they are covered underneath, I just feel there is a top cap missing but I may be wrong

    Wanted W124 Coupe/cab, seat belt circular spring

    Does anyone have the small circular pre-tentioner spring and the small round plastic ring for the base of the seat belt bracket where it is bolted to the sill? It seems in the past someone in frustration must have thrown them away when trying to put the seat belt back on.

    We returned from a week on holiday yesterday to find the E class looking somewhat lopsided at the front nearside corner. Whilst seemingly very common on a Merc however for an '07 car to need springs for the second time in its short life already (last replaced in April '10 so no warranty to...
