How to Replace the Control Arm on a Mercedes Vito

Model: Mercedes Vito W639, MK 2 - Years 2003-2013
Part: Control arm

Let’s replace the control arm on a Mercedes Vito. Place the vehicle on a column lift and loosen the wheel nuts. Then, raise the car to your preferred height and remove the wheel. Use a socket spanner to undo the control arm's securing bolt and the bolt mounted under the wheel hub. Undo the bolts on the upper part of the arm and the plate secured to the car's body. Remove the arm from the bolt housing with the help of a pry bar, undo the last bolt, and tap the arm with a hammer to pull it out. Insert the new arm under the vehicle and begin tightening all the bolts on the threads shown in the video. Double-check that everything is securely tightened.
