When i bought my CLS 6 months ago i thought that front tyres were a bit too noisy for a merc but i didn't find anything wrong with that at that point and kept driving.
But yesterday my friend who also has a merc said that tires ARE too noisy and the problem is there are some kind of bolts in front suspension that manufacturer puts in to stiffen the car up but they have to be taken away/replaced after car has gone through 100k miles otherwise they shredding inside of tyres.
Now this morning i went outside ad run my hand on the inside of front tyres and the are shredded to bits .You can actually put your fingers inside the rubber , you can fill a bits of cord too so it is quite deep!
I was surprised they haven't blown yet.
It is the same on both front tyres and the car drives perfectly ok (exept the noise)
Does anyone knows the problem and approximate cost involved (bearing in mind the car has done 85k of miles)
And is there a good garage in east London to fix it ?
Cheers
