This place......
http://www.germanautoparts.com/Mercedes/1992/140.051/E2/407/19342782...
has the struts for $570.00 each strut and $115.00 for each acculumator.
I can do the repairs myself...but, if the lines to the acculumators break off when I try and disconnect them...I rather the shop did the breaking! |
How is the car riding now? Usually you can get away with just replacing the offending strut or accumulator. The SLS system is not an "all or nothing" deal. As expensive as these parts are, finding a shop that can accurately diagnose the specific problem is the way to go.
