Repair of Damaged Audio/COMAND Wiring Harnesses
If audio/COMAND theft results in cable damage the wiring harness can be repaired or ordered separately.
An order and replacement of a complete interior wiring harness for the "frame-floor system" is not required.
Repair of "Non"-Antenna Lines and "Normal Copper" Lines
All "non" antenna or video lines and optical fibers ("normal copper" lines) can be repaired in line with WIS repair methods: AR00.19-P-0001A
Repair wiring harness as per specified repair method (Models 124, 126, 129, 140, 163, 164, 166, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 197, 202, 203, 204, 207,
208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 215, 216, 218, 219, 220, 221, 230, 240, 245, 246, 251,461,463) and AR00.19-P-0100A General repair methods for wiring
harness (Models 124, 126, 129, 140, 163, 164, 166, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 197, 199, 202, 203, 204, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 215, 216, 218,
219, 220, 221, 230, 240, 245, 246, 251, 461, 463).
Depending on the model series involved, the wiring harnesses may be represented in different design groups.
Antenna Lines
Generally all antenna lines can be ordered individually or as modules through EPC by checking:
^ Qualified entry through vehicle identification number (VIN)
^ Select design group:
- ...54/410
- ...54/545
- .../82/310 (ascending)
Low Voltage Differential Signal (LVDS) Lines:
All LVDS lines (video line from COMAND to central display) can be ordered individually.
Depending on the model series involved, the LVDS lines may be represented in different design groups.
The LVDS lines are located in the following design groups:
^ .../54/410... "Cockpit wiring harness"
^ .../54/545... "Frame>floor system"
^ .../82/310... (ascending)
MOST (Media Oriented System Transport) optical fiber:
All MOST optical fibers can be ordered individually. MOST optical fibers are located in design group:

Shock Absorber Replacement
General Information on Shock Absorber Variants
Do not replace both shock absorbers AIRmatic, ABC, ADS or adjustable suspension strut if only one is defective. Only a component that has been
diagnosed to be faulty (damper or suspension strut) may be replaced!
Noise Inspection
Reason for the noise should be determined by driving each side of the vehicle in turn over appropriate road surfacing or if possible by swapping over
the left and right component (damper or suspension strut). Before any replacement is made loosen and re4orque the corresponding
damper/suspension strut first and check whether this resolves the noise complaint.
Front
On the front suspension struts or dampers this need only be carried out on the top bearing mounting.
Rear
Both the upper and the lower attachments for the rear suspension struts or dampers must be loosened and then tightened again to the specified torque
with the vehicle in its ready-to-drive condition (i.e. the vehicle must be standing on its wheels).
Section 2: Special considerations for different damping variants
1) Air suspension struts and dampers (Model 164, 166, 211, 212, 219, 220, 221 240, 251)
ADS suspension strut (Model 129, 210, 140)
Adjusting damper (Model 204, 207, 231)
Since it can be assumed that a new shock absorber installed in a high-mileage vehicle would not harmonize with the used shock absorber and thus
impair ride comfort or vehicle dynamics, we recommend replacing these parts in pairs after the component has traveled at least 80,000 km.
2) ABC suspension struts (Model 215, 216, 220, 221, 230) In contrast to the air Or ADS suspension struts or conventional dampers, ABC
suspension struts must not be replaced in pairs at higher mileages (more than 80,000 km). The vehicle body dampening is performed by active
actuation of the plungers. These work wear-free! Passive wheel damping by the shock absorber integrated in the suspension strut plays a subordinate
role.
3a) Conventional dampers (Model 164, 166, 168, 169, 171, 203, 204, 207, 209, 211, 212, 218, 219, 230, 245, 246, 251) Since it can be assumed
that a new shock absorber installed in a high-mileage vehicle would not harmonize with the used shock absorber and thus impair ride comfort or
vehicle dynamics, we recommend replacing these parts in pairs after the component has traveled at least 80,000 km.
3b) Conventional dampers (Model 124, 129, 140, 163, 170, 201, 202, 208, 210, 461, 463) On these models diverse shock absorber variants are
standardized in the parts sector.
If dampers with new standardized part numbers are installed for replacement, then conventional dampers must be replaced in pairs!
In the event of any complaints on parts that have already been replaced in pairs, then the procedure as described in 3a should be followed.
Section 3: Deviating procedure
Information on additional deviating specifications for technical modifications is available in EPC and TIPS The current documentation in advanced
systems such as TIPS and EPC must always be followed! At this moment in time, we would like to draw your attention to the special considerations
for models 204, 207 and 212.
