You need to get more creative describing sound it makes. Conditions as well.I am running a 2000 ML320 which has a rubbing noise in the back left tire assembly. i think the problem is with the rear axle or possibally the brake caliper / brake system. Has anybody had this problem or does anybody have any tips or suggestions about the problem. Any information would be great.
There are several special tools involved. Cost of which will far exceed price of having it done by the shop.well after more examination of the wheel assembly it turns out that the wheel bearing has gone bad and worn out... creating the noise. I know the process of replacing the part and such, but was wondering if other people out there had any advice for the removal of the bad bearing or the instillation of the new one?
Don't feel bad. 90% of success in any repair is to know when to quit.Hi Witek M -- thanks for the additional information -- and quick response!
As I examine this further, I'm getting the sense i should let a shop tackle this. Per your earlier email, I hate to remove the wheel carrier and damange ball joints and I certainly to note need to add some of these specialty tools to my collection. Do you have any sense how much benz whill remove from my bank account to complete this work?
Thanks
