Thanks, Uriel. Great vid and tutorial! Doing homework on the ML350, I found the 2011 and earlier models used the M272 engine. MB released a service bulletin with specific repair instructions for the camshaft adjuster solenoid. For anyone reading this, I like Uriel's tutorial and vid better. No offense, MB. Jus sayin.
My water pump failed on me just 10 miles away from FCP Euro warehouse ( I'm from Jersey, and was in CT doing some work ), this is pure luck, It was a Monday ( luck again ) I ordered a Water Pump for pick up and was able to pick it up in 2 days, stayed in a Comfort Inn hotel, and replaced the Water pump in the hotels parking lot. One of the bolts broke on me ( I was dum8 enough to use an impact ratchet to unscrew it, but thankfully I learned the lesson and got away with one broken bolt. I replaced the pump and left the broken bolt in place ( it was a top blot which means a lower chance of leaking ) I drove back home and bought a cheap extracting kit from Harbor Freight, had to drain the coolant again and remove the pump, 10 minutes later I was able to extract the broken bolt successfully, but as you already noticed, I'm not that smart .. I didn't order a new bolt in advance (I somehow thought I would reuse the broken after as if it would come out new again ) so I reinstalled the pump, pattern torqued it again, and 1 week later I got the new bolt, and installed it .. 45k miles later, it's going strong.
I installed a new on on my Mercedes but the light is still on. What can I do to clear it?? now the lights function normal now but no luck on dash light turning off. Any ideas??
Just did 4 camshaft position sensors on an m278 at 70kmi to prevent slight oil intrusion into the harness. MB dealer parts, labor and expertise $1000. I'm ok with that. I can use cheaper pigtails if the other remaining connectors begin to seep.
Hey been watching your videos on the W203 and they are great. I will be attempting to replace my water pump soon as it has some play and is clunking a bit. Any advice with the install/removal? I am fairly good with cars but have never done this before. I will be getting PB Blaster ( WD40 Penetrant specifically ) Thanks
For me it has the least amount of plastic compared to rivals and Morden day cars, the entire door pad is soft touch the lower part has fabric the door beading are fabric and plastic (other cars have metal bits ) the interior of the door pockets and dash board are felt line etc
This is a great car minus the repairs like water pump, control arms, fuel pump, serpentine belt and pulley snap, alternator these are very common fixes just maintain it I’m 22 and making enough to keep it running just always check and see if anything’s wrong keep up with the maintenance I’ve had it for a year and have driven it pretty far and pretty hard
I bought the same car 3 months ago ,but it’s a none runner (having an electrical problem). I am inspired and so I will be getting a few tips and advice from your channel. Appreciated man 💪🏾🙏🏽

2003 C320 300000KM. Replaced the water pump . Not one snapped bolt or problem. You must have done something wrong or previous mechanic was a gorilla 🤦♂🤦♂🤣🤣
hey bro, you’re literally the only person i know that could possibly help me. i know you don’t have a c250 but it’s still a w204. would you be able to tell me how to bleed out the air in my cooling system. i recently replaced my head gasket, some of my valves and flushed my coolant as well and all i need to do now if fill it up with new coolant. i just don’t know how to bleed the air out. please help bro
Thinking of purchasing a 2014 c350 since i heard it's the best year as many of the previous engine issues were resolved on the 2014 model. 75k miles. Thoughts and good price for it(in your opinion)?
I replaced the sensor, but could not clear the sensor. I took my car to auto shop, the mechanic couldn’t detect it with his high tech OBD either. The message is still there and both left & right beams are still dead. All fuses are still good. I called another auto shop specialized in European cars, but they said they don’t have the tool for it. How did you clear it with your OBD? Did it detect the message error? I need help. I’m trying to avoid a trip to the dealership. Thank you.
Hello Uriel. Amazing content bro. I subbed instantly. I've a 2009 w204 (c180 Kompressor).It's not starting anymore. Error codes that showed up include: P10DD00, P0A0F, P0072, P0485, P0340, P0365. What do you recommend? Thank you.
