Is that a manual transmission? I have one also. Where are you getting your parts for it? My car came with the V6 272 and a 6 speed manual transmission 716

Hi Michael, good eye, yes- it is a 6 speed manual, with the 716.671 transmission. A rare bird to be sure. I get my parts from FCPEuro, I've had good luck buying OE and OEM parts from them and their customer service is second to none.

what size are the 2 smaller T30 bolts? Are the T30 M6 16m??
@northeastbavarian4249 2 ай бұрын
Great question- I am not sure of the thread and length. I just checked a Mercedes-Benz parts diagram but did not see the bolts called out. M6 x 16mm is a good guess, I remember most of the bolts in this assembly threading into thru holes so length should not be a major concern. I will let you know if I get more concise information about this!

I believe these ones still have some life left, as my camshaft deviation values (variation from a reference angle between the camshafts and crankshaft) are still within spec. I plan on tackling this issue when I have more project space. Be advised, this is not a simple undertaking- replacing all 9 timing chain guides involves removing the engine and disassembling it completely.

@@shibbyslayr1 it sounds like that is the case, the car in this video was diagnosed at the dealer as needing the ports cleaned, new valve and pump. I could hear the pump run on cold starts so I suspected it was okay. I knew that his car had been driven sporadically and not up to temperature over the past couple years, so I jumped straight to the ports and cleaning them solved my check engine light.

I just replaced the bottom and upper seat covers on my 2014 C250 COUPE. Bottom just like the video . Top one requires neckpro headrest removal which on the 250 COUPE is unique not like on the sedan . Key trick is to raise the headrest fully before removing the seat from the car , unclip the 3 headrest post clips and power wire beneath post then can yank it free of the black clip on the toothed motor arm. The OEM covers and handle were almost $900 at the stealership but the final install looks factory new. Did a couple you tube videos but they are hard to find . The six white clips on the back of the upper are difficult to reattach so used 3/0 saltwater fishing barrel swivels clipped into them to ease pulling them through the seat foam to the long wire across the back of the seat . Have to remove the hard back shell but not the lower side covers and loosen the airbag to get to the side clips of the upper seat cover. Auto trim tool pops all the plastic tabs around the perimeter out. A pencil type soldering iron makes clean holes in the cover backside tube fabric to reattach the 6 white clips and at the bottom to allow access to the two final cover torx screws at bottom . Will get 3 airbag codes even with battery disco so have a tool to clear them or car will disable after 1-2 starts .
