Hello together Has someone ever changed the control chain of the 500e engine wants to make this to my DB next week Greeting Willi

Hello forum, I have a question: With my E 320 T V 6 (i.e. petrol engine) with approx. 191 000 km from ́01 it seems to me that the oil level will increase minimally in very small quantities. At perhaps 14 000 km approx. one and a half to two millimeters (not centimetres). The vehicle does not consume any coolant, smokes and steams out of the exhaust, runs very well, does not need a bit of oil. I drive about 20 % city, otherwise only on long distances AB and highway (approx. 200 to 500 km with bet still the oil smells a little bit like gasoline, but it actually has it quite easily with all my cars, even if I drove in the year 40 and 50 tkm. Are the injection nozzles leaking very easily, or is the oil level only now in the summer (would be an explanation for me) higher by considerably higher oil temperatures (even at 30 degrees and sharper driving) than in the winter or do I just worry too much? The next Assyst B would be in 2100 km. I look forward to your answers! Many greetings Daniel

Hello together! I have already set this post “before” under W124 – but then when searching it found out that it is probably better kept here and maybe here more an answer can be expected. So I would like to apologize for the cross-posting! I have ignition problems (mechanical) with my 300-24, motor M104. Have ignition oscillations, very bad in slow idle and the wandering ignition spark always shoots me the cover disc (even the second) to the cylinder head or My question now: Is it really the case that there is no direct contact between the distributor’s cap and the distributor’s finger in this model? I don’t have a grinding carbon pin or anything else – it doesn’t look like one of them belongs in it either. In any case, the spark has to jump here from the input of the ignition coil in the distributor’s cap to the middle part of the distributor’s finger! Well, and apparently the spark is “mistaken” there. nn now and then 🙂 Is there a part missing or does it have its correctness that a “long spark” is generated at this point? Many thanks already for the help! Ciao 300TE24 aka Pico

Hi guys, I’ve tried the search already…….but unfortunately I didn’t find anything suitable. I’m looking for a recommendation from Sterndocktor for a fully synthetic 5W30 or 5W40 engine oil for an M271. So far, my motor has included Mobil1 0W-40, but I want to reduce the light noise of the camshaft adjuster at warm start and try it with 5 oil. However, the oil must be released according to sheet 229.3 or 229.5. What do you think of Fuchs Titan Supersyn 5W-30? sche Motoröl is almost equal to Mobil 1 in quality? Sterndocktor had recommended some at that time and I am looking for them now. Thank you for relevant information

Hello, I might have wanted to buy a C class soon. Now I wanted to ask which 4 or 6 cylinders of gasoline will come out of mercedes in the near future? So far Mercedes doesn’t have any economical gasoline. At Audi there is already the TFSI and Bmw coming soon with lean direct injection (had already the economical Valvetronic), does Mercedes not bring something new? Or does the direct injection technology, but only problems, like with the mitsubishi Gdi. But now that Audi has brought the Tfsi after FSI, I thought there were no problems with the direct injection technology. Mitsubishi had problems with the cooking of the intake cups, due to the lean operation. Gruss, Andy, who wants new economical engines (in the range of 150-200Ps) at Bmw and Mercedes.

Hi, I am looking for the specifications(data sheet) of the ARAL 0W-40 LOW SAPS with 229.31 MB release. Find here, on the net and also at ARAL nix. I wrote them a mail 1 week ago, to this day no answer would be great if a species knows this and here posts Mfg Torsten

Hello. I have a question for all AMG drivers regarding the automatic of the AMG vehicles.I have to fight with shift trucks at our SLK 55 AMG.A new software and adaptation drive has already been carried out.Without any major success!Now I was told by the workshop that this is normal for AMG models.Because these are trimmed on sport and thus the shift trucking is normal.What does this look like for you?Would you like to hear from me?Please only report the real AMG drivers.Thanks E. Greetings Markus

Hello together am totally new here, and it’s good that there is something like that. I bought a Mercede Benz 200 E from a grandpa (is not the first Benz) When I drove home on the highway much to me that automatic transmission does not take a kickdown or does. Anyway, I thought that I can give gas as I want it to turn on no gear back as it is usual with an automatic. Yesterday I also noticed that I drove at full throttle on the highway 180-210 km/h so after a time of 15 minutes to the gas station at once it squirted in the front of the engine room, what could that have been?

There’s no such thing as a hybrid. It’s a S 400 with 15 KW “Better starter electric motor” and start stop automatic is a hybrid. The V6 itself delivers 200kw – 13.33 times the electric motor (15 Kw). Average consumption 7.9 liters (Prius has a 50kw electric motor!) The W123 has 40 KW in 1977 and a 2.3KW starter motor. If I count it for 31 years of development retardation then I can call it a hybrid. Its engine has a 17.39 times the power of the electric motor! Its only manco: No start stop system (1977 not yet ready for production). Average consumption also around the 8 liters, but not the same acceleration values *g* Where is the big revolution. Both vehicles have a similar ratio – to an electric motor!

A new day, a new question: I have an E 320 CDI T-model, Bj 5/2000, 140,000 km, there is in the service booklet under “additional work every 3 years: coolant change”. My free workshop means: “Do you really want to do this to yourself?” Does this really make sense or is it covered? Can only affect the corrosion protection in the cooling water, frost protection and cooling effect do not age, doesn’t it? Does the change also help to prevent the calcification of the cooler? 5 years with approx. 100,000 km it should still last … Thanx
