@ianengland9549 it's very easy. Push the knob by the clock and turn while the button is pushed.

@FriendlyMBTech thank you but also we have electrical problem it's not the battery it's not the alternator it drives great but if we don't drive it sooner often the battery goes dead it's a new battery so can you probably explain what problem it might have with electrical?

@joshuahearn3555 30k miles later and it's still running strong.

@ awesome man, thanks again! I had the same scare when I changed my engine oil and I’m getting a lot of mixed signals from people telling me that my bearings are shot or other metal issues exist. But the engine runs strong, and there are no other issues, I think it was just normal break-in material. My engine oil looks identical to what you posted in this video.

@joshuahearn3555 I chalk it up to getting my engine from a very sketchy place. The next oil change was metallic also but not quite as bad. The others looked normal.

@joshuahearn3555 also, you're very welcome.

It's very easy. Remove the wheel, remove the fender liner, remove the reservoir. The fender liner is held in by some plastic push clips and 10mm plastic nuts. The washer reservoir is held in by a 10mm bolt or nut, I don't remember which. You just have to snake it out from around the lines and harness. Make sure to get the grommets back on when reinstalling.

I mean the vacuum pump?

@mohammedkhan1910 yes, the vacuum pump needs to be replaced.

Thanks I am doing this job next week. Also do I need to replace new intake gaskets?

@mohammedkhan1910 it wouldn't hurt. Just remember to install them on the lower manifold and not the upper manifold when reassembling.

@@FriendlyMBTech Thanks again

@@zactormak feels just like a factory transmission should. Amazing.

@UncleFjester Habit. Skin cancer is a thing. Having multiple instances of cancer in your family makes you not care what people think of you wearing gloves.

@jasonbirch1182 that's a good idea.

@@sjulier thank you!

@hochiminhliba5439 I can do any MB engine. I just need a rebuildable engine, preferably the car it came from, and all the money to do it. It's that last item that's hardest to come by. Otherwise I'd love to do every MB engine.

@@jameseastwood4984 😂😂😂 thank you!

@@jameseastwood4984 not quite. It does rub some because I have 17" wheels with 225 wide tires. I have the thickest spring pads already. I raised it some with a 1/2" chunk of high density rubber above the front spring pads.

@@Miqfos a thousand apologies for the late reply. The torque is 400Nm.

@@frankissa8040 did you reset the tensioner?

@@FriendlyMBTech No sir I did not. Is that video where you take the tension apart?

@frankissa8040 yes sir. I remember having issues getting the tensioner in properly. I did have to take it out a time or two. I also believe I did not have the pins installed that hold the cams in place.

@@josecortez4789 you're very welcome!

@@TheReal1953 you're very welcome. Let me know if it doesn't fix it.

@@lukeduke9304 you're very welcome!

@alanOHALAN I do. It's firm, but it won't rattle your teeth out. I find it very smooth on the freeway, and I live in Southern California, where the freeways are notoriously bad. Depending on your wheel and tire setup, you might get some rubbing. I'm using 17" W203 Sport wheels and 225 wide tires. I rub in places on the freeway and certain dips. To help with that, I made a pad out of 1/2" high density rubber and put that on top of the upper spring pad in the front. I still rub but not as bad. If I had a narrower tire, I might not rub at all. Front and rear wheel arches are rolled but not stretched. Just enough to fold in the inner lip. Otherwise the 225 tires would rub in the rear. Now I only rub in the front on the inside on very large dips.

@patriksernc I hadn't checked the differential fluid since buying the car, so I didn't know the condition of it. I'm glad the previous owner kept up on it

@deez6686 oil filler caps have seals that can go bad. I would throw a new cap on and see if it fixes it.

I did buy a new one from the dealer still leak . Please help if you can

@deez6686 how many miles are on the car? If the piston rings are worn, you could have too much pressure in the crankcase causing oil to leak out of seals like the oil cap.

@@NovaScotiaKevin 😂😂😂🤔

@brokeboytelevision9974 No sir.

@@lowshot959 you're very welcome!

@UKBUILT Thank you! It's going slowly. I'm at the point where I need an entire car to finish it. I need all the accessories and electronics for the engine.

@@UKBUILT What's the project?

@meikelinde1623 thank you! Email me at Friendlymbtech@gmail.com and I'll see if I can help you. Let me know what information you need.

Thank you very much in advance i really appreciate it. Turns out my Dad is rather stubborn at finding a solution by himself at the moment😅. If he comes up with something that works ill write it down here or send you a picture.

@@meikelinde1623 you're very welcome.

@@lekubaka you're very welcome!

@timlin254 there are two fairly long bolts securing it to the head, depending on your model, the turbo side is either that clamp, or two smaller bolts. Once those are removed it comes right out.

@timlin254 the clamp has a small torx bolt, could be E10 or possibly E8.

@gabrielmedina5503 I try to reply to everyone. Some slip through the cracks though. This should apply to the R129. All M119s have the same firing order.

@@FriendlyMBTechthank you so much I hope you have an amazing rest of your night

@@gabrielmedina5503 you're very welcome. You as well.

@@Mis73rRand0m I'm glad you were able to figure it out easily!

@北洋军阀 pretty much the opposite of taking it out. Nothing really special about going back in.

@joewestfall2952 the factory fan clutch is no longer available. The one I had on the car I got from a guy who knew a guy. If you can find a NOS factory one, go for that. Otherwise try FCPEURO.COM.

@frankissa8040 I apologize for the late reply. I honestly have no idea what the physical differences are when you face the piston the other direction. It's could be an expensive experiment to partake.

@@FriendlyMBTech Thanks you so much I will keep finger crossed and sent it

@@mikealbrailsford5438 you're very welcome!

@nikkylastephan1168 the seal for the M119 seals on the crankshaft pulley shaft.

@@jmc2204 A 001 140 76 60 is the part number for the EGR valve.

@@robertlikis3386 what happens when you select the Handover option?

@@robertlikis3386 What happens if you select the handover option?

@@FriendlyMBTech It allows me to select YES or NO. I tried both and one put a warning to go to the technician?

I went back and changed it to the other YES - or NO I forget no but e]neither worked to get me to Service Confirmed?

@robertlikis3386 yeah, at this point, I'd suggest taking it in. The dealership can reset it with their diagnostic computer.
