Detailed Description

VAICO V30-1525 is a driveline service component built for Mercedes-Benz CV joint applications where the boot must seal the joint and retain grease under normal operating movement. The elastomer construction provides the flexibility needed for articulation while helping isolate the joint from road debris and moisture. This makes it a practical replacement for worn or damaged CV boots on Mercedes-Benz E320, SLK230, and related rear axle applications.

The fitment data covers rear inner, rear outer, rear right inner, and rear left inner positions across multiple Mercedes-Benz models from 1990 through 2005. The part number V30-1525 is also useful when cross-checking service references for the same application.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Cracked or torn CV boot material
• Grease leakage around the joint
• Contamination entering the CV joint area
• Boot wear from driveline movement and age

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the exact rear position and side before ordering, since fitment includes multiple Mercedes-Benz rear inner and rear outer applications. Match the vehicle year, model, and notes in the fitment table to verify gearbox-side application details. Inspect the CV joint for wear or contamination before installing the new boot.

Quality Assurance

VAICO supplies OE-style replacement driveline components, and this boot kit is specified with elastomer material and application-based fitment data for Mercedes-Benz service work.
