Hi, I noticed a noise from my front passenger side wheel, after removing the wheel I have noticed a considerable amount of rust on the spring perch (pic attached), is this repairable? as I see it seems to be welded onto the body. Anybody know a good bodyshop/welders in the northwest who can...

Hello All, My nearside rear suspension drops overnight so the tyre is under the arch. I have diagnosed the fault to be a leak at the reservoir with possible internal corrosion of the hose. I have tried but am damned if I can get that hose off, what makes it even more difficult is that the...

Very disappointed to find that inspite of a comprehensive B Service/Inspection including gearbox oil and filter change and a new ball joint all were covered under the Service Plan and Tier 1 Warranty thankfully. The dealer that did all this work less than a week ago also failed it on the coil...

Having seen a few threads about it, I wondered whether my SLK would also fall prey to spring failure at some point. Well, the wondering is over. When doing a three-point turn on Sunday, I noticed a clonking noise coming from the front off-side as the wheel reached full lock. Pulled over to have...

Hi all, wondered if anyone could help out at all. Went for an MOT, and it failed due to a fractured coil spring, i have purchased one from mercedes @ £57... and have also found a garage to fit for me for £65, BUT, do i need to have the tracking done again after the new coil has been fitted ...

What is the average work time ,to change the rear springs. on a w211 e320. With the MB tool.

I'm considering changing the timing chain and tensioner on my '84 280CE (M110), myself. It seems the MB spring compressor is very expensive, and many people seem to use home fabricated versions. I've found this Sealey device online: Sealey VS168 Valve Spring Compressor Lever Type OHV/OHC...

About 2 years ago, MB Milton Keynes was really kind and offer to pay for the perch replacement as a goodwill, this done in the MB shop in Broxburn, near Edinburgh. So far so good. Untill today... Yesterday I was changing the right wishbone and this is where I saw on top of the spring, that the...

wrong place. Move to wheels and tyres. Can a mod delete this please. Cheers.

Any ideas on where to obtain a Klann type inner spring compressor without costing the price of the car?

Hi all, I have recently purchased a set of eibach springs for my car and am now looking for someone to fit them, near to Cambridge. I have been to Mercedes and they want £500 :eek: Anyone know anywhere that would do it a bit cheaper, is it that hard to do...I have changed springs before...

would i get away with removing the rear spring bust that sits above the spring to lower the back end slightly?? ive noticed that this isnt a problem when fitting coilover kits so i wondered weather it would make a difference on standard setup. i understand that mercedes put the bush there for a...

One of my vans ( Renault Kangoo) sits rather low when it's carrying about 350kg of water. The springs are fine as I've had them recently checked but they appear to have contracted slightly due to continually carrying this weight. I was reading an article where caravanners can add spring...
