Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 40 number 11\-18 dated July 14, 2011. When a control arm or wheel bearing housing \(swivel bearing\) is replaced, additional parts must be replaced due to a supersession of service parts.

Control arms and axle joint journals with diameter M14 \(previously M12\) are now fitted to all production vehicles.
