This is a mini how-to. This engine has a wet sump. Unlike it’s predecessors, the 3200 and 4200. So an oil service is just as with any other regular engine. Thanks for watching

Here's a how-to on replacing the release handle for the tilting seats in a Mercedes-benz w207 c207. May be applicable to other models with tilting seats.
Bravissimo💪

Sori Bud, I`m a bit late on this video, but thank you very much for this tip..`I'm sure to save this video... My question is this this - when you unscrew them, is this the point where they normally breaks.. Or have you or maybe anyone else found that they break off anywhere else. ??
Thanks for the video. I used this information to solve the same problem. But I managed it much easier and without a magnet, because I just didn't have a magnet on Sunday, I had planned to buy it the next day. My simple method was to inject compressed air into the glow plug bore and the glow plug's heating element flew out the nozzle bore.
Cannot remove this head rest what’s the smalll u turn part you mention?
good video
My care same engine consume oil 4 L to 10000km
It s valid for 1.4 tdci (dv4 ) engine??
their si a clip on the left hand side of the head rest wich needs removing
In Croatia 560€ for two handle. Insaine.
Very Good. Thank you.
Hi.. My broken off tips don't seem to be magnetic.. Citreon c4 Thanks
Success I did mine ok.
Great instruction! What a clever mechanic you are :)
Top notch, thanks
Looked at your video and thought I’ll give this a try ( Citroen Dispatch 1.6hdi ) I found that only the tip of the glow plug is magnetic enough to be picked up. Before you try this make sure the tips of the glow plugs are magnetic by testing a removed one. Tried and tried to get a connection just about to give up then bingo it worked. Thanks a lot for this tip. Hope I never have to use it again.😄
I just rescued 3 glow plug tips using this method. Sealed make a 5mm dia magnet which helped me. Not easy but it is doable
Thanks very much. It happens the same with me, on one othe the glow plugs. I use your technique, and it worked. I little hard , but it works. Thanks, and keep up with your great tips.
Thank you so much for this. Worked perfectly! 🙌
Hi, thanks for the video. I have just bought a replacement handle and not the whole unit. Could you advise how to just replace the handle? Many thanks.
Hi, did ur handle just break as well? I have recently just bought the handle itself too. Looking for guide to replace just the handle. U managed to replace urs?

Help !!! C250 coupe front passenger seat will now not return to normal seating
Helpful video thank you merci . My 2014 C250 is same design. Handle cracked underneath , dealer wants US$270 for part . Looks like a job for JB weld . The leather/vinyl around the handle trim is fragile so old credit card under trim removal tools for protection while prying.
I have the same car and my handle broke today. Glad I found this vid
thank you I have this exact problem . I wondered if this was possible. the next problem is I have not yet got the injector free. thanks for confirming this is possible.
Thank you so much you save me a headgasket and lot of hours
rip off prices to get this replaced my merc dealer quoted me £500 for this repair....
@@TheMechanicsCar-ek1vm doing it right now mate 👍🏼
Coukd not get the head rest off seems to be a locking catch when trying to pull it out.
The head rest won’t come out? I see in the comment somebody mentions a u turn bolt . Where is that please ?
Same problem for me - I can’t get the head ready off. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the video mine has an airbag in that spot how do I disconnect or disable it as for it not to go off
Hello mean. Do you tried with endoscopic camera with magnet
Hello. I am asking for a BMW 318d from 2017. When you do the oil change "at home" does the oil sensor feels that you have emptied the oil? It will pop out on the coputer when scanned? Or it is not sensed by the cars sensors? Thnk's
If you don't turn the ignition on/ you won't start it, obviously the sensor will not detect anything.
I put a long screw down through the tip of the glow plug and pulled up with a hammer.
What screw did you use mate? Need your help!!
hi what's the code for the Bosch oil filter?
@@TheMechanicsCar-ek1vm thank you
The mask? 😂😅
OMG Thank You very much!!!
What screw driver do you use for the screws in the back? Torx???
my mechanic told me that this is normal with diesel. with gasoline oil is very clean, but diesel is making oil black even in 5 minutes as you see. try to do this cool test with gasoline car ;)
I have done it on a VW Crafter because it was ceramic and I had no choice - I would say I drill and pull them out - I have done loads of them - again as a last resort I would push them in - but it would be easy to nearl the hollow end and get it stuck if you were in experienced - I would at the very least have a guide …
What engine oil you use for B47 engine can you please write me exactly

Hi! Where can i buy one? Mine is broken! Thanks
You're exactly the youtube guy I need. Especially since that weirdo from belgium produces crappy content on his 1 series. You're thorough enough to do a bang up job. Please don't get shy and upload. People would love more content on the 1 series, even maintainance would be just fine.
I look forward to more videos, especially as I'm planning to buy a 1 series lci/ or a 3 series lci. Not sure if it's gonna be a diesel though. What oil are you using/ recommend for the b series engines ?
What movie is that clip from? 😂
Where is the bleeder valve at on the motor to let air out of the cooling system
been hitting the tip but doesn't seem to move at all. I have already gotten the injector out, got an endoscope and magnet ready but that's as far as I've got. any suggestions? do you have to hit it really hard? the glows plugs are in the back of the engine so hard to get to!
Hi, not sure of you remember but did you still bang it out?
Dont forget to insert and close ur new oil filter BEFORE ur carter bolt. In that way, u push & eliminate about 25cl of ur old oil. That could explain y ur next oil changes are still polluted.
It turns out that only the wire is magnetic , the black cover cannot be pulled by a magnet if the is no wire inside it.
Fantastic
You my friend are a legend 🙌
👍👍👍
