Mercedes-Benz CLA Suspension Service Malaysia — Sport Tuning
CLA sport suspension (lower, stiffer than C-Class) puts more stress on bushings on Malaysian roads. Expect bushing and shock replacement around 80,000 km. Costs for CLA suspension service.
The CLA C117 uses independent suspension front and rear (multi-link rear on all variants). The C118 CLA uses MacPherson front and torsion beam or multi-link rear (same as A-Class W177). No AIRMATIC on any CLA — conventional steel spring/damper setup throughout.
