W166 sway bar bushings, NON replacable
My w166 has clunking from rear end. It turns out to be the sway bar bushings. BUT, for this model with active curve control (hydraulic tosion bar) these busings is NON replacable. Need to buy new complete sway bar for 3000 Euro.
Any expirience??? This is insane, but true.
is there any known work arround??

Found these while doing some research for my own, mind you they are poly bushings not original so they will be much stiffer:

MB stabilizer bar bushes are adhered to the bar with adhesive. Not available as loose items as original parts. Therefore buying the bar is required.
Standard bar is "inexpensive" compared to the EUR 3k two-piece Active Curve stabilizer bar.
