:) Hi folks as the post says, i've FINALLY found the root cause of the flaming knocking on the rear of the car ( nsr ) in this case.
It ALWAYS culminates in a bloody knock when you come off a bump ( rebound ).
After driving about with the rear seats down, jack out of the car, spare wheel...
Here is one for the experts here!
I had a look at a W220 Biturbo and so far, all looking good.
However, there was this unusual 'paste' on the top of both front suspension towers. It literally looked like the metallic copper 'paste' that Humbrol do for model kits and that had been wiped off...
Hi All,
About to attempt this job so was hoping if anyone here has actually done it on a 211.
I see there are a few posts on how to do it on previous versions of the E Class Estate, but can't find any guides for the 211.
If anyone that has done it would be kind enough to offer some words of...
Hi, I am a new member.

I had a new AMG strut fitted on the 11th Nov by MB Oxford. The part was sourced from euromerc, very impresive service.
Sadly on Friday the suspension collapsed and MB Oxford tell me the strut has failed. And they now say I ought to fit both n/s and o/s.
Any thoughts on :-
a) why the new...
Hope im posting in the right place being a noob and all that,I have a problem with my SL55 front suspension struts - both bottom bushes/ball joints where they attach to track control arms have serious play in and according to mercedes are an unservicable item and hence im expected to pay £1070...

Hi all,
Bit of a wierd question, but how do I get to a nut to tighten it up?!!!
Its the strut on the hood cover on a 2001 CLK Cab. I might have to be a bit more specific, as I'm not sure what its actually called !!!
