    Great video and TY. I watched it to get a general idea to replace upper control arms(with camber adjustment) on a 19' GLC63 with air suspension and 4matic and it was very helpful. Should video the drivers side showing the 2 plastic nuts holding fuse box, then fish out the fuse box to hand access the the 16mm nut closest to driver. That's the hardest part of the whole job but easy once you have space! I have good pictures.

    Helpful tip, the nut in the engine bay on the driver side is under the fuse box. Remove the two bolts holding the fuse box and lift the fuse box out of the way to access it.

    My C400 needs a suspension refresh soon because Boston roads are trash. So happy you guys made this video! Hopefully you guys stock the air suspension that was briefly offered too :)

    The lower control arm to axle carrier bolts are torque to yield, so they are one time use bolts. Need to make sure you order new ones from Mercedes. Do not reuse the these bolts.

    Hi
    Solution to the stiff amg suspension on the w205?
    Any way to make it softer to soak bumps and bad roads better?
    Bought the w205 c200 with amg suspension not knowing it's so stiff

      I don’t think the 205 has camber adjustment. Only front and rear toe. At least on my c63S it’s a fixed -2.2 camber.

    What Symptoms Would you encounter to warrant replacement of these Control Arm Parts? I Have About 88K Mikes and Having Vibrations at 50/60MPH and above.. Not Sure if I'm Supposed to have that Vibration at that Mileage Or It's Something Else. 2014 C300 AWD.

    Cut the sway bar nut and insert a new 10.9 /12.9 110mm Bolt from the other side. and voila no need to lower the sway bar on your next change..

    Do control arm bolts need to be replaced. Torque is specified both in NM and angles which could mean that the bolts are stretch bolts?

    • @fcpeuro
      @fcpeuro  2 месяца назад

      Having a secondary angle often means its stretch to yield - so we'd recommend replacing the bolts.

    Thanks a lot for that valuable video, but if you please, can you make another video showing how to replace the left upper control arm, because it’s so confusing that one of the nuts is very deep and hidden by the fuse box and other components!!! It seems to to be impossible to reach that stupid nut without removing tons of parts in the way!!
    I’ll appreciate it if you give me a hint on this because I’m planning to to do this job on this weekend.

      That's correct Robert! By doing exactly as you said, you'll ensure that the bushing isn't under constant preload when on the ground.
