You find these circular black rubber hard points underneath the car (near the side jacking points with the little doors in the cladding) on 124 and 126 models. These are made of rubber and generally age as rubber does, and eventually split with use.

Easy replacement. Three of the four rubber discs were split on my C126 (1989 560SEC) and I replaced them last year. Indeed they are very inexpensive (so cheap that an aftermarket part should never even be considered).

Cheers,
Gerry
