S204
I need to replace the rear shocks of my S204 (C 180 Kompressor -09). It's equipped with "480 Self leveling suspension" and "677 Avantgarde/standard suspension" and the OEM no for the shocks is A2043200138. It seems like they are only available from MB at 650Eur a piece...What shocks without the "self levelling" can I use instead?

Personally, I've always fitted genuine MB dampers, but you can check the Sachs catalogue for OEM equivalent:


Or, better still, check the old damper carefully, if you're lucky it will have the Sachs part number (not just the MB part number) stamped onto it somewhere.
 
Also Bilstein:


EDIT: Bilstein don't seem to have the self levelling suspension option for their B4 series.

By swapping out the rears for non Mercedes shocks (never mind ditching the self-levelling) you are in serious danger of upsetting the ride and handling
