What were the results after the repair was made? Did the car run better? Less smoking? etc....

17 new dont use the big cheap that goes to 25 kilo

Question, can you get in there before removing the fuel line with say air? Or is that not a good idea? I was thinking blow out as much as I can first, then pull the lines, then brake clean it as good as I can and proceed with removal.

17 mm by 7 like what bru be more clear

What size seat cutter

Can you tell how you solve the problem with the broken bolt and what kind of solvent you are using to clean so gut the sludge? Also can you provide the length of the bolts ? I bought car with a broken bolt for the injector bracket and over this broken piece the genius "master" make a tread into the valve cover 8 . mm tread and bolted the injector bracket to the valve cover. Very "smart".So I will be very thanks full if you provide this valuable info. I will try to fix this problem some how . Thanks in advance.

When the injector was leaking did the car was start difficult , and was smoke and misfiring until warm up?

Your torque wrench was the problem. You have to use a small torque wrench that reads only on inch pounds. One that reads foot pounds isn’t appropriate for this job and isn’t completely immaculate. 7 nm is a VERY low torque.

Nice job very helpful video on how to remove the air box. Can i asked why you replaced the oxygen sensor. Can i ask do you find your car produces black smoke at all on any type of heavy acceleration or even moderate acceleration. Also did you find once you changed to oxygen sensor the car run better? Thanks

Bad perfomed repair, no ceramic greas jused, bolt not correct torxt , need = 27 nm en not 270 nm.

You can actually hear the click at 7nm 🙂

Great job

Hi Zach, was that sensor 1? have an error regarding bank 1 sensor 1, mine has a DPF as well, thx

J'ai vécu récemment la même chose (vis cassée au fond sur 1 cm en resserrant) avec un ami mécanicien. J'avais acheté exprès une petite clé dynamométrique car la mienne, une grande, ne démarrait qu'à 20 nm. Il avait commencé à serrer et n'a pas fait attention au déclic de la clé. En effet, 7nm ce n'est pas grand chose. Et il continuait de serrer et commençait à s'inquiéter de ne pas entendre le clic. Moi non plus je n'avais pas fait attention au clic à chaque fois qu'il recommençait à serrer. Cet outil était neuf et je ne l'avais encore jamais utilisé.Au moment où mon intuition me disait il faut arrêter, il venait de casser cette vis que je savais pourtant fragile. A savoir encore qu'il faut très bien nettoyer le filet et le trou, et même repasser un petit coup de taraud, car cela fausse le couple sinon. C'est de là que vient sans doute le problème; Enfin, ce n'est pas très sérieux pour MERCEDES de construire durant des années des voitures en continuant d'ignorer ce problème. Pour la réparation, comment avez vous fait ? Avez-vous mis un hélicoil en M6x1. Quelle longueur fait-il ? Ca aurait été intéressant de faire une video à ce sujet, car le problème semble assez fréquent. On devrait aussi ouvrir le cache culbuteurs et changer tous les joints toriques. Car si de l'huile reste au fond du pas de vis, là aussi le couple de serrage est faussé. Et merci encore pour ces explications très détaillées.

IDIOTT

The Bolt gets 7nm. Your Hole wasnt cleaned well and you compressed the dirt and overtorqued the bolt.

Thank you, very helpful!

u did say 7Nm but it looks like u do 70Nm ;)

Use a longer t40 next time

I got a P2626 now, I suspect someone has bypassed my 02 sensor.

There's one sensor on turbo b19/11 exhaust temperature sensor (turbo

You say 7 mn. But you make min 30nm. I habe this Problem you must vuy a kit for the raipair. Helicoil

Best vid out there ! Keep up the amazing work mate :)

Sounds a little like Trailer Park Boys' Ricky there at 23:30 "I'm not going to play it because of TH-cam copyright..... Plus, it sounds good, so..". (Ricky would have added "so go f' yourself"

Some holes are really nasty but others can be real nice!

7Nm is not tight at all. I don’t think your torque wrench works

Bro the music jesus

I would feel better buying ONE $40.00 BOLT, if necessary to be confident, that is was made of strong enough METAL to... NOT break in half, as that bolt did! I would also consider cleaning that bolt HOLE... extra well, to remove any gunk in the threads, before installing that Bolt! JMO Good video.. THANKS!

Why ? you not buy Mercedes parts? That bolt never should of broken. IDI PARTS sounds like cheap chinese crap. Thanx letting us know never buy from them.

This is eazy when they are bosch, i have an OM646 EVO and it uses delphie, as soon as you try to remove it, it breaks into pices. I sent theme all to service since the return plastic pipe broke as well...

I just changed my radio and realized that extra plug is for the radio controls in the back seat. My steering wheel doesn’t have radio controls but the back seat has a spot in the middle.

Thank you for great video! I actually new that you will break bolt, to much tork I’m curious how did you get out broken bolt? You should break (LOL) it again and film it how to remove it. Thanks again!

Nice job, fair play to you for taking on such a job. Is yours the IL6 or V6 engine, thanks. I have a chuffing injector right at the rear of the engine. After watching your video I feel I can undertake this job. Does the slider and re seat kit come to much money? Thanks

Where do I get o rings?

Excellent explanation

Thanks for the video; I would change all of them if I were you.

Hi, mate. How you know which o2 sensor need replace ? What fault code you have P2225 ? Pls let me know. Thanks

More videos 🙏🏼

Very good job

Best Clog fix Video ever!

Why you need a torquewrench? You know how much 7 newtonmeters is?? Its nothing and you broke the bolt😂

how is the audio ?

Hi Zach.. Great content.. could you tell me the under hood fuel hose routing.. from the fuel injector pump you have a upper & lower 5/16 fittings one goes to the 3/8 Y fitting and the other goes to the fuel filter.. I was changing my fuel lines and sorta got them mixed up.. Thanks so much!!

You needed a quarter inch torque wrench

Thank you!

Nice ideo and good work. The Mercedes CDI started injectors problems with the 6mm bolts, and the fire rings. So every time an injector is remove the Bolt and O-ring mus be replaced. Taxi drivers knew this problem and the remedy for them was to replace the 6 mm bolts by new 8mm, That work must be done by specialist precision repair shop. I had this problem 3 times in same car, and decided to take the 8mm modification, and never again. My E320 CDI is 22 years old with 200.000 miles and the engine works brilliant. Mercedes engineering is not perfect and they keep using the 6mm bolts for many CDI engines along many years. Metal pieces before break elonge loosing resistance, and cannot be used any more. So bolts replacement is mandatory. Best regards

Please use pipe wrench don’t use open wrench to loosen or tighten fuel line. Thanks for video

Thank you lots! And, since you are in the general vicinity how the heck does the alternator come out of this car????

The black death is one of the easier to fix issues on this engine. So IF you see a used E320CDI with this problem (and many owners think thats the end of the life of the engine) it is entirely possible to get a good price on the car due to this "HORROR" around the injector....but it is not the end of the world. Be patient with a stuck injector, it WILL come out! Hot engine, etc etc...

After this leaking goes on for a while it turns into whats called "Black Death"...sounds ominous but is actually not a huge problem UNLESS you cannot remove the injector! So, If this starts happening, it is easy to see and you should rectify the problem promptly, and chances are the injector comes out EASILY even without buying the removal tool. So take heart, order the new retainer bolts, they are NOT EXPENSIVE use a torque wrench and put this back together, after cleaning etc! Nothing to be afraid of. And ..in addition I was surprised to see that the original retainer bolt was so loose it was ALMOST HANDTIGHT, if you can believe it. After I put everything back together I keep checking around the injector but it is shiny and clean just like it should be! What a relief! Oh and do yourself a favor by sealing all the diesel orifices with something to keep dust out!
