E350CDI shock replacement options (dynamic handling)

[JBM1]

Help needed

Can anyone help point me in the right direction......

so after some fault finding I have found that one of my rear shocks needs replacing after the previous owner neglected to maintain the car (a lot of mismatch parts/lack of replacements)

I noticed while looking at the shocks they had an electrical connection which confirms the car has the dynamic handling package (sport button on dash & checked datacard for option)

however it appears I am now unable to find anywhere which stocks a full set of front and rear shocks?
I have found KW do a DDC kit for £2,500
I have read that the OEM parts would need to be replaced by Monreo shocks?

Does anyone have any idea where to purchase a full set of front and rear shocks & prices or how much Mercedes charge these days?

I feel £2,500 for suspension on the car is too far to pay and don’t really want to lower the car

thanks for any help

Try AutoDoc, they're usually pretty good

Give MB Grangemouth a call for pricing and part numbers, also Autodoc is a good call.

Thanks so far for the replies!

can anyone clarify does the rear need the electronic dampening too? I can’t seem to find any rear shocks....even autodoc only have front suspension available

Yes, the MB EPC has specific electronic rear shocks, but even Monroe does not list them.
Maybe they never go wrong..go wrong..go wrong
