Torq specs ?

So this is the reason this engine came make 258 lbs-ft from 2,400 rpm to 5,000 rpm. I just bought a 2007 C350 and it is amazing. I hit 130 mph the other day and it got there pretty quick.

That is the most excellent and detailed video of this procedure, thank you, I am about to embark on this adventure with a 2008 CLK 350 with 203,000 klms . I am curious why you didn't unplug the coil packs, you seem to wrestle with the wiring looms on both sides, would it not be easier to move them out of the way with the coil packs unplugged? As for peoples comments on " how do you know where all the bolts go ? " buy 12 clean takeout coffee cups and label them.. but the bolt sets in each. thanks for your sensible video. From Australia.

Nw meter? Intake manifold

Why oh why the fing music? Crazy

What are the other two actuators doing?

Yeah... Crappy 'modern German engineering'. Disgusting...

Excellent helpful and clear video instructions, thanks

Super helpful, thank you! A million connections

Couldn’t you just fix the part that was broken? Also, the part is plastic and they make metal replacements. Why spend $300-500 on a whole new intake when you could replace parts for 1/10th the cost?

進氣岐管故障，會導致跳檔不順甚至入r檔熄火嗎

Nice. Only thing is the new manifold appears to have the same doomed to fail plastic flap lever that the original had. Oil and sludge build up on the inside flaps can be avoided by changing out the oil separator diaphragm thing behind the passenger side valve cover on a regular basis

This is GREAT....now I hope I never have to do this!!

Great video really helpful!

Amazing video, thanks! It enabled me to replace the intake manifold of my car within a short time and without faults. Great!

بسیار عالی

It's great to see the best of the best thanks for sharing keep up the good work

I really would of liked more detail in how to Uninstaller parts like the actuator and connections.didnt really like this quick run through

Hello guys. A little help please(P2006 - no check engine light, though ) It doesn't look like anything is damaged with me, but after pressing one of the levers as you do in the clip (2:55), it stays in the same position and does not return., at the same time it moves hard. What do you think the problem might be?

Thank you for all your effort. Value your advice over music.

If the flaps are broken inside then 😳

How many broken clips 😢 on my 2007 ml.and how to replace them

Hi what is the symptoms to replace the inlet manifold The car had no good acceleration and if i hit the fuel pedal suddenly it won't shift to next gear till i remove my foot and when need to stop so hit the breaks it will gradually down shift with feeling to the all shifts Is that the because the intake??

Not a switchover valve though....

Were did you bought the intake manifold flat kit from please? I need it for mines been looking for it where to buy it. Mercedes-Benz doesn’t sell the kit so the whole set I don’t need the whole manifold set. I just need the kit.

Excellent work

Don’t replace the intake. It’s gonna happen again. You can get the updated linkage made out of metal online. About 60 dollars and the problem is solved

Thanks for this video - it's really going to help when I attempt this. One question though, would you recommend swapping the plastic tumbler flap actuator on the front of the brand new manifold with one of those billet aluminum ones from AGA or URO, so that the possibility of it breaking in the future is basically zero? I'm in two minds as I read that Mercedes specified the tumble flap actuator to be plastic so it would break before the actuator flaps inside the manifold itself...

Good afternoon i need to replace my intake manifold on my Mercedes C320 W203 year 2001 ,i believe it is on the right side under in , what type of time frame would i be looking at Mercedes Dealer believe a little under 4 hours ?? thanks for your help much appereciated ...

What Size bolts did you use to align the Intake manifold? (2007 GL450, V8). As I would like to do the Same. Thank you for a great and Helpful Video A++++.

I would love to see this on a MB 273 V8. GL450. Plenty video's on the six cylinder M272 but not too many or ANY on the M273. I know the procedure is close on both but it would be nice too see the M273 V8 Thank you again.

Excellent Job. Thank you for explaining those little Gray Clips that are always a pain. I'm on Long island and I see you mentioned October, Will you be coming here to Long Island? I would love for you to do this job on my truck. This is the Best video I have seen great JOB!! Thank you.

Hello, i replaced the intake manifold and now i have p0106 intake manifold pressure sensor malfunction, i changed the sensor for a oem one and the vacum hose to it. And im still getting the code. I have 5v and ground in the connetor. Any idea what it could be ?

How long should this take on 2010 ML550?

The inside of that intake manifold looks like a beginning of a great music video.

M272 3.0L is afected?

I'm in the process of replacing mine. Got the old one out. The code I had was p2004 but nothing seems broken, everything is in its place. Any idea?

Are you in VA Beach? can you recommend a mechanic in the NYC/NJ area?

I am replacing the manifold. Should I be lubricating any of the internal flaps before installing. If so with what?

I need this IM replaced on my 2011 ML350. Do you know of any top MB mechanics in the NY/NJ area?

I have 09 E350 with 55K miles and it drives like brand new. I've been checking this flaps on my car every 1st day of the months for a last 2 years (Never missed). But it broke on 1st of May when i was checjing the flaps.. The damage was at the same spot in this video. The broken piece still attached with the middle rod. The car felt the same and no CEL. . The drip pan (pcv) and the caps has been replaced last year (Wasn't leaking). So I removed the secondary air pump and left side check valve with a couple air hoses then put some JB plastic weld and add a thin metal plate for extra strength. Its been working fine. If this brake again later, will replace the manifold. I just wanted to see how long it can handle..... Btw, the best video on the TH-cam. RESPECT !!!

It's like watching someone playing with a plate of spaghetti.

Great effort ,thank you

In my 2008 SLK280 R171, I have confirmed the broken plastic part with an inspection camera. However, no CEL, but the code is p2006. How much should I expect to pay at an independent mechanic to fix it? Should I just replace the broken part or the whole manifold?

I have to change the intake manifold on my 2011 E350 and your video is a great tutorial. One question I have is that the vacuum line that is in the front of the intake manifold was replaced by the tech because the original one was worn...what size vacuum line did you use for this? Thanks

what about the m271 ebgine, where are the flaps

Mine is stuck closed.. Does it still move back and forth if its broken? Asking because i want to know if its the sensor or not

This video was excellent! I have a 2011 R350 with this issue, and after watching this video I'm sure I can tackle this with ease! Thank you for your detailed information!

Thanks for going into such detail. I am going to do this on my 2007 E550 and I am much more confident having your video on-hand to reference. I have 142k miles and will replace the fuel injectors as well.
