Operation: How to replace the shock absorbers of a Mercedes.

Replacing the spring shock absorbers on the Mercedes E-Class, W124, produced from 1984 to 1995 is a very simple operation that can be carried out independently, thanks also to the help of this short video tutorial.

We proceed by lifting the car and removing the rear wheels to better access the shock absorber springs. We clean the bolts and remove them, as shown in the video, and extract the shock absorbers, then insert the new ones. We remove the springs and insert the new ones. We tighten the pulley and the job is done.

When trying to turn off the aforementioned ignition and then lock the car with the key, it is assumed that the petrol door, as well as the doors of the car, are closed, but this is not the case, in fact the latter in practice always remains open. Ultimately, you can access the fuel tank whether the car is closed or open.
