Hi there. I have searched existing threads but with no luck on my exact problem. My ML 270 CDI (2003) ex-UK, 161 000 miles's rear spare wheel carrier is getting stuck. It has become so hard to turn when opening (that is pushing the assembly to the left away from the rear hatch) to an extent...
Terry welcome, you may want to add your year and model to your signature.
I do not know how much a difference it makes somebody with more experience may need to chime in: the rear carrier changes the center of gravity of an ML. If you go to Benz part site or some aftermarket sites and look for rear struts and springs You’ll see it’s different part numbers for an ML with a rear carrier and without a rear carrier.
Just thought I’d pass this along to you if you didn’t already know.
