    This video creates unrealistic expectations, have you been to a UK garage 🤪. Thanks BTW, I need to get this done the next time there's a sunny afternoon.

    At around 4:30 how did you know how many inches to lift the lower control arm to compensate so when the car goes back on the ground the rear of the car is not sitting up in the air higher than the front (a common issue I see when people replace shocks or front struts on these cars)? Can you guide me on this if I'm jacking the car up off the ground but it won't be on a lift like you have here in the video?

    • @autodocuk

      Unfortunately, according to the description, it is difficult to advise anything, so we recommend contacting the service.

    what's the torque spec for nut inside the trunk?

  • @WSTours
    @WSTours Před 3 lety +1

    I do like your vids, but in this one, the mechanic tightens the new shock into place on the bottom bolt, but then is shown adding a nut to the top of the shock inside the car ??? The car is up on a lift.......how are we supposed to get up there to do this ??

    • @qwertyqwrtyqwertyuio
      @qwertyqwrtyqwertyuio Před 3 lety

      Step ladder?

    • @qwertyqwrtyqwertyuio
      @qwertyqwrtyqwertyuio Před 3 lety

      Or just lower lift a bit

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  Před 3 lety

      This process can be done by lowering the car to a comfortable level.
      You are absolutely right, mistakes were made in the video editing process, we will definitely take this into account in the following videos.

    Same for a 2001?

      @autodocuk  Před 2 lety

      Unfortunately, your car may be structurally different from ours and the replacement procedure will be completely different.
      Therefore, complete information can be found in the service or technical documentation for the repair of your car.

      Too stiff? Perfect! Mercedes shocks are always mushy soft anyway. Drive like an old man's car. I love Mercedes, but never liked how soft they ride

    • @joesaric1
      @joesaric1 Před 2 měsíci

      Than you bay Sport or Avantgarde. They are too stiff for elegance ​@@EnverC-yp7tr
