I haven’t a video on changing the shock even though I have for a yellow bilstein type? There is a nut to undo behind the carpet? However I did pull mine out from the side by lifting the seal and removing the plastic grommets? I know if you take it to a garage they will remove the perforated circular shape on top but one taken off it will not be the same but will make the job easier
Hi Blynde I purchased the SLK from Copart was completely smashed at the front took 6 months to rebuild so I never got to compair it? I bought bilsteins front suspension you can only use lowered springs? they did three types I went for the mid one also changed the front wishbone rubber bush for a poly one as the rubber bushes get week? It was a hard ride but drove round corners like shit to a blanket?
Thanks for sharing ! Is yr car "lowered" eg on B8 shocks and lower springs? Whats the ride like with your, I assume B6 spec bilsteins, am asking because need to change all my shocks starting from the rear, am considering B6 Bilsteins but dont want too hard/harsh a ride. Thanks Again !
Great video thanks....im faced with doing front as well as back.
Nice! Thank you! Saved me from a struggle!
Your very welcome
👍
Great video. Well explained.
Great video. Do you have a video of replacing the shock? Can you do it from the outside of the car or do you need to take things out from the trunk?

I think trunks are at the front, like elephants. I wear my trunks for swimming.
Nice one, most grateful. Is this a sport package, do you have any details that differ compared with standard setup. Regards Steve.

I’m afraid it will stiffen the ride? Great handling but you wouldn’t want you mum sat with you with false teeth
