We're one step closer to getting started with the performance aspect of my w204 C350 by making sure the Cam Magnets Solenoids and Camshaft Position sensors are replaced after many years on the road! They are prone to oil seepage overtime which causes all sorts of problems! Preventative Maintenance is key!

A great video that I found eventualy without removing the reservior to remove the magnet!

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.

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.

@alextablet4668 Жыл бұрын

Wonder if they could possibly cause misfires. As I've just noticed that I have an oil leak right there on bank 2. If you know, please let me know. I booked it in for a service in a couple days and they'll have a look at where the misfire comes from as well.

@UrielArtsGarage Жыл бұрын

Well it’s best to start with coilpacks and spark plugs first with the misfire. I highly suggest getting a cheap obd reader from Walmart which will cost you $25. It helps a lot when it comes to diagnosing your car!

@RothBeyondTheGrave 5 ай бұрын

Yes, any of these can cause misfires as well as rough running & cold start rattling. Far more likely to get misfires from the cam magnets rather than coils on M272's

Check if your wiring harness are clean and doesn’t have oil, it tends to gather oil overtime and destroy it, there’s lots of replacements on fcp euro

@elizabethp5835 11 ай бұрын

How many position sensors and camshaft magnets did you change in total. I just want to confirm to know how many I should order??

@UrielArtsGarage 11 ай бұрын

total of four each. two on each side! you can get a kit from fcp euro which gives you what you need for the job!

@kanapkazpasztetem Жыл бұрын

do you have any special (or even official MB) source of what to change on the engine? or is it just knowledge from online forums and so?

@UrielArtsGarage Жыл бұрын

Online sources are very helpful! The m272 engine is spread across multiple models so a lot of these problems are the most known ones. For the most part these are the most common issues the m272 engine usually has! The most significant being the intake manifold which is also made out of plastic.

@Irani_guy 7 ай бұрын

hey bro I tried this and stripped one of my bolts. do you know the replacement size? also do you recommend change all or only leaking ones?

@UrielArtsGarage 6 ай бұрын

Always replace all at once since it will cost you more in the long run if you replace one at a time, and for the bolt that’s so unfortunate! I would look for it at fcp euro!

Do you have to change the CAM position sensor if you have worked changed the camshaft before or it is just a maintenance thing?

@UrielArtsGarage Жыл бұрын

You don’t necessarily have to change the cam position sensors however in my opinion, you might as well change them if you’re doing the work in the same areas! Besides the gaskets usually tend to go bad when they get older!

Did you get any engine codes for this? Possibly P0018?

@UrielArtsGarage 9 ай бұрын

I would try to see if there’s a good amount of oil gunk around the area, what usually happens is that seepage of oil gets into the wiring harness and messed up the harness causing codes like that.

I can’t do this by myself cuz i dont have a 6.5mm wrench to squeeze in, everything else is too bulky. Im not about to take apart oil separator and steering fluid reservoir… Looked for the wrench in every damn store and no one holds it so imma just pay a fucking mechanic to do it. I really wanted to do it by myself but whatever
