Hi all
Posted this in parts aswell,
Thought I would see if anybody has come across this problem.
We have a customers SL500 WDB 230
It has failed the MOT at an another garage for excessive play in the shock absorber supporting ball joints on both sides.
It has code 487 ABC hydraulic suspension package.
The shock absorbers have ball joints on the bottom which mounts into the camber arm.
Never seen that much play there before, over 10 years on Mercedes models.
Does anybody know where you can get them from or somewhere that is recommended to recondition them.
Mercedes only list the full strut & at £1058+ vat each and needing both sides customer is not too happy
