Hello all, as the title suggests I was wondering if I can grease the U Js on each end of the propshaft on my E300d estate, I have vibration (not front end) that starts at 65mph.
Its going in for a 4 wheel balance and if that doesn't solve the problem I will move onto the drivetrain.
I had another rear wheel drive car with a similar vibration that started at 50 mph and that was traced down to the U J's
So I thought before I change them I might pump them full of grease, if possible...
So can I do it? and if I can will I need the grease nipples that screw into the middle of the joints?
If they are knackered, is it a big job for the home mechanic? (fairly well equipped) and where is the best place to source the parts?
Any advice gratefully recieved, I'm doing a 2000 mile journey in a couple of weeks and would like it to be perfect, you know how it is...
