ОтветитьThe link for factory workshop for manuals doesn't work.
ОтветитьIs the thrust one in front or back?
ОтветитьWhats the repair manual? The link is no good!
ОтветитьThank you. Very very useful video. I have a 2002 W220 S320 M112-engined Mercedes. It has had a slight vibration at highway speeds and a small clonk over some bumps since I bought it 2 years ago.
Do you think those things could be due to these thrust/control arm bushes being worn?
It has done 228k km (142k miles).
Bla bla bla. Do it in front of the house without a car lift 😜
Ответитьthe link for manual is not working.
ОтветитьMy Mercedes C class C180K 2009 pulls to the right when braking at 40 MPH.. does that mean I need to change the lower control arm?
ОтветитьStinx the ball joints dont look like they are replaceable.
ОтветитьGreat, accurate info. Thank you for the knowledge.
ОтветитьWhat do you think about the SLK 320 , 2000 to 2005? Are they good cars abd reliable?? I have a chance to pick one up with about 100k on it , well maintained..
ОтветитьWhere do I get this tool
ОтветитьWhen purchasing a new control arm, can you purchase the entire arm with the high performance bushing already installed? If so, would you provide a link. Thank you. Tim
ОтветитьVery very good project, explanation 👍
ОтветитьSuper Video.
ОтветитьWhere you get your car parts from
ОтветитьYou need to replace bushings and motor mounts with the same durometer specifications
ОтветитьCan you give us a model/make of the miracle press so we can buy one? Your link does not show it.
ОтветитьThis guys got it wrong it’s cheaper buy the complete arm bushes already installed replace like for like his way is more expensive as each bush is expensive
ОтветитьThe service manual link is dead. What manual was it?
ОтветитьNice video. Thanks
Did/Can you make a video on replacing the various rear suspension bushings on a Mercedes?
I have done front bushings and arms on our W202 a couple of times. However, the fasteners of the rear bushings are difficult to access without lowering the sub-frame.
A good friend of mine is a metal and has access to everything you need walking with for this reason I actually made my own extracting once I got the proper size in lots of measurements taken and then a nice clean threaded rod which I actually talk from a jack worked very well, if I had not got access to all the equipment I would not have set out to make the extraction tool
ОтветитьWhen my car is driving it is smooth no noise but if I go over a speed ramp or if I break suddenly and hard sometimes my car will do a speed death wobble as I have heard it nicknames on the front right hand side there is a Donald and it is when I swing to the left is when experience would you say that the job you are doing at the moment would probably be most likely the problem not holding you down to any yes or what else would you think would give a a very aggressive wobble I must say but when you're on straight road you can drive to the point that you could let go of the steering wheel it is that's smooth but if I swing the steering wheel aggressively to the it nearly give the sensation that it's going to flip no it's not going to sleep but it is aggressive wobble what are your thoughts hope to hear from you
ОтветитьAlex, been watching a lot of your videos in the last 4-5 months. I love your attitude and energy! I've always done my own maintenance on my older vehicles that were relatively easy to maintain. I have always loved the MB and bought a 2011 ML 350 4Mmatic 10 years ago, a CPO vehicle. Later that year I bought a 2003 SLK32 AMG roadster that I truly love; never seen rain, never driven in winter. I've always been intimidated by the fact it was a MB. Scared to touch it; take it to the dealar!! I wish I had a lift in my garage!! Love your content, your attitude and Peter in your videos when you got your shop!! You do great work and produce awesome vidoes!!! You truly are THE MAN!!!
ОтветитьVery useful and practical Video.. Thank you very much Buddy.
ОтветитьNew viewer... solid content with really good suggestions and options. Thanks.
ОтветитьUnless it’s a W211 4- Matic as far as strut goes . Nothing but heartache and regret 😆
ОтветитьWhen using the bushing extraction/installation tool why not just use an impact to zip it out and push the new one end?
ОтветитьWhat can I do for my w213 to make it hella smooth ?
Ответитьlong bolt and a couple of big sockets and washers do the same thing
ОтветитьI just paid $1100 for new motor mounts and transmission mounts for my 2007 eE350. Comes with 24 month and 24000 mil warranty on work and parts. Did I pay to much?
Ответитьlink for the first tool?
ОтветитьOn replacing the lower control arm on a 2013 Mercedes S550 which has the bottom of the air shock sitting atop of it, do you know if theres any technicality involved in changing it? I'm told theres a special bolt holding it to the cars frame and torqueing it is complex. Know anything about this?
ОтветитьThis is a great video and much appreciated, but I would think that by the time the bushing is shot, the ball joint at the other end of the control arm is probably due for replacement, as well. In other words, it may be a better practice to just replace the entire control arm.
ОтветитьThissssss is wrong with my car
ОтветитьWorkshop manual link doesn't work for me.
ОтветитьWaste of time just to replace the bushings and not the ball joints. Is better to replace the complete arms. Upper and lower control arms.
ОтветитьI did method number three. It felt different
ОтветитьGreat video. I certainly learn a lot you make it look so easy. I have to me a major issue with my Benz CLS 500 2006. Rear tires are going bald, also when I hit a bump the car rear end tends to sway back and forth, like I’m loosing control & tires wear out n a weeks, what can the issue alignment what, tires are expensive. Also I think I need a starter. Turn the key nothing happens, battery is brand new . Need help, my name is Larry,
ОтветитьHave you ever done motor mounts on w212 e350 4matic?
ОтветитьHow I do I get shop manual DVD 📀
ОтветитьALEX, thanks for this great video. Now with cost of everything people will enjoy the benefit of saving cost. My question is you only showed the bushing on the control arm changed but whats about the ball joint. Can that be replaced too
ОтветитьThis looks like a scam he skipped the steps where busing was extracted and then reinstalled 😂
ОтветитьI did this and I totally regret it. Should have bought new control arms. It would have been cheaper and easier. The only solace is that now I own a cool tool. It's been sitting in the garage for two years.
ОтветитьI love this video. Thank you sir!
