► The steering system on the W211 Mercedes E63 and E55 AMG aren't dissimilar from other models. They use the same relative design with the same wear points that every vehicle has. As such, the W211 will eventually need a tie rod and steering rack bushing replacement.

The steering rack bushings absorb some steering forces while centering the rack in place. Over time, those bushings wear and introduce slop into the steering feel. The tie rods are the pieces that connect the rack to the steering knuckles at each wheel. Their ball joints are subject to constant use and abuse, leading to similar vague steering and handling. At their worst, they can even prevent an alignment from setting correctly.

Follow along as Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, tackles a steering rack bushing and tie rod replacement on a W211 Mercedes E63 AMG.
