Product Description
The Moca Mounting Shock Top Bearing Front is designed for the front suspension of selected Mercedes-Benz models. This part plays a crucial role in supporting the top of the shock absorber, helping to cushion road impacts and maintain smooth steering response. Its robust construction ensures proper alignment and reduces unwanted vibrations during everyday driving.
This mounting shock top bearing is compatible with Mercedes-Benz W204, W212, W176, W245, and R172 series. It is essential to confirm your specific model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment. If you are unsure, the MiMi Auto Parts team is ready to assist.
Symptoms of a worn or failing shock top bearing can include knocking noises over bumps, uneven tyre wear, vague steering feel, or increased vibration through the steering wheel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of worn brake pads or brake components?
Common signs may include squealing or grinding noises when braking, reduced stopping ability, a soft brake pedal, vibration under braking, or the brake warning light on your dashboard. Because brakes are safety-critical, diagnosis and inspection by a qualified mechanic is recommended before replacement.
Can I replace only one side of the brakes?
Brake pads and discs are normally replaced as an axle set (both sides at the same time) to maintain balanced, even braking. Replacing only one side can cause the vehicle to pull when braking. Consult a qualified mechanic for guidance.
