[@Daemione]

Steady camera shots, good lighting, straight to the point - great video! (but the lack of anti-seize makes my soul bleed) :)

[@rci30]

How different of a job would the rear of the C140 be? 1999 CL500 coupé S class.

[@mtcru]

Instead of replacing spring, you could replace spring's shim with a greater height.

[@westmerch]

thanks! feel more confident to do this, d you have the same video for the front?

[@stanmendoza638]

Ment 2 ask wat type of c class.. was it da c300

do you know what that 1 dot on the upper spring support rubber pad means at Mercedes?

[@viestemnogotupi]

1 dot = 5mm height of the rubber pad

Thank you

[@TooBlessedToStress88]

Thank you for this awesome video! I was able to change my rear spring!
I do have a little problem... it is making a metallic screeching sound when I put it in reverse. I was going to drive it around the block was afraid I would damage something. Any input on this?
Thanks in advance and thumbs up for a great video!

[@doit_vehicles]

Hard to tell - but if the car is making the sound when you drive it in reverse it's either the rubber bushing from the shock absorber or the transmission . If it's making the sound when you just shift the gear ( the car is not moving ) it can be from the brakes ( normal in many situations ) or from the transmission ..

[@_vindicator_]

probably too late for this now, but if you did this method, it may be that your caliper mount bolt was not tightened correctly and it's allowing the caliper to move back and forth a little. when you put the car in reverse, you generally have to hold the brakes and there is reverse pressure from the rear axle when you change gears, which causes the caliper to make a noise if it's allowed to move. mine does it too, even if it's completely tightened. the older the car, the worse the noise as rear subframe assembly, sway bars and all other components start squeaking too due to rust, loose bolts, deformation.

[@largowinch4511]

How is it easy to remove the bolts from the shock absorber and the swingarm?

[@doit_vehicles]

Depending of the level of rust on it

[@raymaharaj3555]

Thank you .

[@slimfd2607]

You need do to front springs that will be interesting to watch

[@doit_vehicles]

hello sir, do you have service manual for the older toyota aygo? I can't find it anywhere on the internet. Can you send me a link? Thank you! Very nice channel!

[@doit_vehicles]

Hello ! For which year you are looking for ? And what do you need to know about it ? Thanks

[@KiceDz]

mine is from 2007, so it's the first version of the Aygo. I'd like to modify mine, fix my loose clutch and shifter, hence it's my first car.
