Mercedes CV Joint Kit - Genuine Mercedes 2203500013

Product Information

A CV joint kit refers to a set of replacement parts for a Constant Velocity joint, a crucial component in a vehicle's drivetrain that allows the wheels to turn smoothly at varying angles while driving, especially during turns; a failing CV joint often exhibits symptoms like clicking or popping noises when turning, vibrations while driving, and visible grease leaks from a torn protective boot, indicating the need for a replacement kit.

• Clicking or popping noises when turning: This is the most common symptom, especially noticeable during sharp turns at low speeds, and is caused by worn-out components within the joint not moving smoothly
• Clunking sound during acceleration or deceleration: If the inner CV joint is failing, you might hear a clunking sound when accelerating or shifting gears
• Vibration while driving: A worn or damaged CV joint can cause vibrations felt in the steering wheel or floorboard, especially at higher speeds.

In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more.
