Complaint:
Wheel well liners in engine compartment heavily soiled (Pic 1)
Attachments
Cause:
2010 Mercedes Benz E 550 Sedan (212.072) V8-5.5L (273.971) Page 71
Vehicles with air suspension and steel suspension have the same size opening in the wheel well liner. As the diameter of the steel spring is smaller
than the diameter of the air spring, vehicles with steel spring therefore have a larger opening, which allows more dirt to enter (Pic 2).
Attachments

3. Glue in foam, starting at the top (Pic 4). Make sure that the foam lies snugly against the flange and is glued on flush in the direction of the
suspension spring (Pic 5 and Pic 6).
4. Reinstall wheel well liner and check the position of the foam piece. The foam must stand straight on the wheel well liner (Pic 7).
