everything is fine when you have access. I was supposed to do it outdoors, but my friend gave me access to the channel and it was easier to unscrew the screws. As for the joint, a heavy hammer helped :)

One important thing not mentioned here is that only tighten the control arm bolts once the wheels have the weight of the car on them. Otherwise the new bushings will not only fail prematurely but also make noise.

Keep up the good work my friend. I am also going to replace my loose suspension on our E350 wagon. This may be a little different than the S Class. As always, i enjoy your videos.

Thanks for the video! Does the system have to be recalibrated when the control arm is replaced?

Thanks , good work ,,but I ask you , shouldn't the wheel hub be raised to normal ride height before tightening the arm to chassis bolt to avoid putting tension on the bushing when the car is on the ground ..?

Did he not have the arm jacked up at that point, so wheel was in correct position !@

Hello sir, I have same issue with my C220, I am positive it’s my lower control arm too, but I don’t know why my local mechanic said it’s upper control arm which I don’t think is true, most of time it’s lower control arm like you say In the video 👍
