ML320 torsion bar location

 

 

In case you encounter squeaky torsion bars and your dealer does not want to treat this under warranty or wants to charge you "way too much" - here is how you help yourself: Get some silicone spray for a few bucks, lay out a tarp, stick your head under the car, locate the torsion bar bushings, spray at the points indicated below - enjoy peace and quiet from then on.

   The bushings are not supposed to squeak and have no grease nipple - so you need to lubricate with silicone spray at the point indicated.

   Both cut outs show only the rear access to the bushings - you may want to spray from the front as well.
