Detailed Description

FCS 1355172R is a direct-fit front right strut and coil spring assembly for Mercedes-Benz W205 chassis applications. It is listed for 2015-2020 Mercedes-Benz C300, 2017-2020 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG, 2016 Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG, and 2015 Mercedes-Benz C400, all in the front right position and excluding Airmatic suspension. The measured compressed, extended, and stroke dimensions provide the key geometry needed for suspension replacement on these vehicles.

FCS is the brand line for this suspension component, and 1355172R is the identifying part number used for ordering and fitment verification. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Front-end ride height that has dropped from worn suspension components
• Excessive bouncing or poor damping response
• Noisy front suspension operation from a failing strut assembly
• Uneven front suspension behavior on the right side
• Restoration of proper front suspension geometry after wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify W205 chassis fitment before installation and confirm the vehicle does not use Airmatic suspension. This assembly is specified for the front right position only, so match the side and application to the vehicle exactly. Compare the existing strut dimensions and mounting layout with part number 1355172R before beginning service.

Quality Assurance

FCS suspension components are cataloged for specific vehicle applications and dimensional fitment. Confirm the part number, chassis, suspension type, and position against the vehicle before installation to ensure the correct Mercedes-Benz C300, C43 AMG, C450 AMG, or C400 front right replacement.
