Hi guys 👋need a website for parts ✌🏽 What’s the best one need to replace brakes and need a tuneup

Best one? Are you looking for OE (MB) or OEM/aftermarket parts?

For OE, I find the best prices shipped: https://www.mercedesbenzstarparts.com/ If it only a single part or low cost item, then its cheaper/quicker at the local dealer.

For predominately OEM/aftermarket (limited OE): FCP Euro (lifetime warranty is nice, but some parts come with premium), RMEuropean or Autohaus. Sometimes I'll use RockAuto, like when I was ordering Arnott springs since they were the cheapest. I would avoid them, unless your ordering OEM parts from them.

FCP is in CT, so I get parts quick and they've been really good. Maybe not the cheapest, but they only sell good stuff.

Ditto for FCPEuro especially for brakes and tuneup parts. That means you have the lifetime warranty so you don't need to pay for the same thing twice. Most of the time brake parts only have a lifetime warranty on the pads, but not the rotors. And some pads like Akebono which are good for no dust just have a regular 30 day warranty on the pads so getting a lifetime one from FCPEuro is pretty good.

I've had success with eeuroparts.com after it was recommended in another thread.

I would like to 3rd the suggestion of FCPEuro. Top notch.

I recently got rotors, pads and sensors for my CLS from FCP Euro, have not installed yet though. It was all 1300, and has a lifetime warranty. Whatever you do, avoid MBParts online as they are a fawking joke.

You can get an axle joint kit. They don't actually sell the boot kit, although they do sell it in Europe. I think the axle boot kit is like $200 and includes the joint but you can find just the boot on eBay, it's aftermarket though, I think Febi.

You can also get an axle from Rockauto.com. But I'd save the old axle in case the new one causes a vibration. Then you can just send the old one off to be rebuilt, there's still a few axle rebuild shops out there.

I've had great success finding OEM parts at a discount on Ebay. You just need to ensure you have the right part number and check the seller(check join date, reviews, etc). Also, many of the same parts stores have an ebay store front and in certain cases, shipping is free through Ebay vs their own site.

I have small vibration on the passenger side on the floor so my mechanic test drive the car he said the aXle is ****up 😬I step on a pot hole the other date ever since than it’s been a nightmare

If it's the outer joint, you can just get the outer joint boot kit.
