ABC strut prices?
Hey all.
I am looking for a right front ABC strut for my 2003 S55. The dealer quoted me $1650 for the part and about $550 labor to install for a $2200 total. I have read that there are aftermarket struts out there, any one here have any expierences? Or does anyone know where I can buy a OEM at a better price and have a Indi install it instead.
Thanks, Johan

an after market one is I am sure the suspension has to be re programmed,
I presume only MB or a MB specialist can do this.

Local indy? Those are the last people that you want working on system such as ABC. Without the proper knowledge, experience and specialty tools they will do much more damage than good.

I use parts.com all the time. They are OEM mercedes parts in an oem mb box.
Parts.com is basically just an intermediary between you and MB of Naperville. The parts and the invoice come from the MB dealer, who just happens to sell wholesale through parts.com.
I've been 100% satisfied with their service and the parts arrive quickly. Shipping is expensive as hell, but I've gotten parts next day.
Very good experience and awesome prices, imho.

I just did a check on a recent part (LR strut for my SL55) ...I could have saved $500 going through parts.com
...for next time I'm going to get the p/n's and cross check and buy from the best source.

depending on where it is leaking from they make a repair kit that lists for around $95.00 dollars and it takes two hours to replace it. it has to be leaking from the top if it is it should only cost a couple of hundred bucks and this repair kit is made by mercedes.

Unfortunately it was leaking form the bottom of the LR ABC strut :-(
