Meyle says its Meyle HD range offer more when it comes to steering and suspension solutions

From endless outback tracks to stop-start city traffic and coastal highways battered by salt and wind – Australia’s roads put every suspension component to the test.
For mechanics and drivers alike, that means one thing: spare parts must perform.
Meyle says that is where its Meyle HD products step in – offering smarter, longer-lasting solutions in Steering and Suspension.
Meyle provides precision replacements through two key product lines: Meyle Original and Meyle HD.
While Meyle Original parts match OE standards and are manufactured with precision and tailored to each vehicle, Meyle HD components are built to exceed them – purpose-designed to fix known failure points and enhance durability.
Meyle says one standout example of how it turns data into durability is the control arm – an essential part of the suspension system.
Every Meyle control arm begins with one key element: precision data.
Using advanced 3D scanning technology, Meyle says its engineers capture the exact geometry of the OE part to create a Meyle Original component that fits perfectly and performs reliably.
For critical components like ball joints, Meyle says it takes quality a step further with specialised testing procedures used to assess seal integrity, climate resilience, and corrosion resistance, which are crucial performance factors for vehicles operating in Australia’s varied and often harsh conditions.
“But Meyle doesn’t stop there – with Meyle HD, we take it to the next level,” Meyle Head of Steering and Suspension, Stefan Bachmann, said.
“When OE steering and suspension components show early signs of failure – such as prematurely worn ball joints or deteriorating bushings – Meyle sees more than just a problem. We see potential.
“By combining real-world workshop feedback with advanced simulation tools, Meyle engineers dive deep into root cause analysis. The result? Components that are reimagined from the inside out – engineered not just to replace, but to outperform.
“A standout example is the Meyle HD control arm for Mercedes-Benz W205/W213.
“These vehicles often experienced premature ball joint wear. A simple size increase wasn’t feasible due to tight space. Meyle’s solution? Redesign the joint’s internal structure to allow a significantly larger ball pin without changing outer dimensions. The result: reduced wear, lower surface pressure, and far greater lifespan.”
Every Meyle HD steering and suspension part undergoes extensive in-house testing – right down to stiffness, corrosion resistance, and lifecycle simulation.
Only components that pass Meyle’s rigorous standards make it to market, backed by a four-year guarantee.
“For Australian workshops, HD means fewer comebacks, less downtime, and a clear upgrade path for customers who expect more from their vehicles,” Stefan said.
“Whether tackling rough terrain or enduring daily wear, Meyle HD offers a robust solution with OE-fit precision – and parts that lasts.”
