1995 E320 wagon - nasty noise from the passenger's side rear
 

Hi folks,

Just changed a broken push link on my 1995 E320 wagon. Just put everything back together, everything looks perfectly normal but how there's a horrific noise coming from the passenger side rear wheel (same axel as where I replaced the link)

Both axels turning:

The car was up on stands running with both wheels removed in Drive. Seems there's some brake binding on both sides (car was sitting before I bought it) but other than that everything seems normal - from my visual inspection at least.

Probably academic, but here's images of both sides of the suspension. Looks normal/the same on each side to me:

Any thoughts? This "daily" isn't working out too well so far :mad: :confused: :rolleyes:

Thanks!

Probably just some crusty things from sitting. Apply the parking brake LIGHTLY to see if it changes the noise, if yes its in the parking brake shoes.

Good luck!!!
