Have you changed yours with a brand new one or rebuilt one?Y’all keep talking about getting a good used rear axle, but that’s total oxymoron!
Mine started making noise at about 50k miles. With that said they’re all actually bad, so finding a “good used one” is out of the question. You can buy rebuilt ones so that means parts to rebuild are available, at least to select vendors. I want the option to rebuild my own.

Hello Everyone, I have the same problem with my CLA, just 31000 miles on it. Have you replaced it with a used or rebuilt or brand new?Hi
yes i have the same problem with a 2016 CLA 250 . the dealer has just been dismissive but admits there is an international problem with the CLA
has anyone heard about a recall or any information about Mercedes admitting in righting there is a problem ??
Hello Traxem, I thought you said in a previous message that it costed you about $2500 plus labor for a reman?Sorry I don’t. My car was covered under extended warranty when the issue arose. It’s been running like new ever since it was fixed. Knock on wood.
Thanks for the info, do you know how I can get a good reman or rebuilt one?Just a reman diff is already 2500 ... sure hope you can source a good condition used unit ... seen some on ebay from wreck yards
Do you see any wiring harnesses? If not then you should be ok
Whats the existing one doing now?
I posted my repair invoice, which has part numbers and what labor involved. You can lookup the cost at your local dealer. As I recall, it does require programming.Hello Traxem, I thought you said in a previous message that it costed you about $2500 plus labor for a reman?
Oh okay, I looked at your invoice. There are no charges? So dealer repaired it for you with no fees?I posted my repair invoice, which has part numbers and what labor involved. You can lookup the cost at your local dealer. As I recall, it does require programming.
Yes. I have extended warranty.Oh okay, I looked at your invoice. There are no charges? So dealer repaired it for you with no fees?
Think they reman the dead ones at some centralized joint (?)I find it difficult to believe that MB designed the rear diff to be a 100% throw away part.
Disconnected the wire. Haven’t changed it yet. It’s quiet now. Thinking seriously about getting rid of it.Have you changed yours with a brand new one or rebuilt one?

Why is yours not being covered under warranty?Hello Everyone, I have the same problem with my CLA, just 31000 miles on it. Have you replaced it with a used or rebuilt or brand new?
I would really appreciate any suggestions and the cost involved. I don’t want to pay $5,000 for a brand new one.
So they could sell me the damn parts and let me rebuild myself! I’ll never own another MB. Customer service is crap and the cars are crap and just cost a fortune for R&M!Think they reman the dead ones at some centralized joint (?)
Rebuilding at dealer sites would hold up service bays and jack up labor costs
Guess you a bum sampleI’m over this car!
