Just wondered how long they last ? Replaced mine with poly bush 15,000 miles ago and they are starting to knock again. I don't know whether I'm better using the normal rubber ones from Merc instead.

Assuming you mean the D rubbers on the anti roll bar I use genuine Mercedes on my Vito and get about 4 years out of them about 150000 miles :D :D :D

Yes, there the ones I meant. The last ones lasted 70,000 so I thought I'd try the poly bushes. I'll order the Merc ones in the morning, thanks.

Funny ive just had mine changed. The rubber seal on the down links had perished the people at the test house don't like that so I changed both links and bushes recently
You will find the new D rubbers now have a dirt seal fitted both sides which helps the situation

Ask merc for a discount as our local agent gives 20% off for Taxi's :D :D :D

Turned out it was the drop links at fault, they were changed along with the bushes last time as well. Have replaced with genuine Merc links now and all is well.
