Description
The suspension on your Mercedes-Benz takes a lot of abuse. While every bump you drive over may feel like no big deal inside of the cabin of your car, your suspension feels it in an entirely different way.
The suspension on your vehicle needs to be mounted to the chassis, and it is done so at strategic mounting points on the vehicle. One such point is the strut towers, where the upper strut mount is secured to the vehicle, and holds the strut in place.
Over many years and many miles, these upper strut mounts wear out due to the constant abuse they take from every bump and pot hole in the road. Once they wear out, your suspension will no longer absorb the impacts from the road that it once did, and you may notice clunking noised coming from the suspension.
If your strut mounts have worn out, they need to be replaced, and while replacing strut mounts, it it the perfect time to inspect and replace any other components in your vehicles suspension that may be starting to show their age.
