no the car was not starting any more the starter was shot, when a vehicle starts very weak it is time to take a look at the battery, starter, starter poor connections, in worse case scenario the engine, dirty battery terminals, thanks for coming to my channel.
@@fixingproblems3183 there are so many things that can cause this issue, what i do first is i scan the vehicle to see if the scanner gives me a clue where to start but when it comes to this issue there are no clues most of the time, so when the engine is cold i get a heat gun n heat up the suspected components like the pcm, crankshaft position sensors, engine coolant temperature sensor, the starter can be jumped instead of heating up with the gun but it is up to you, after you heat up a componet but heat it up very well then crank the car n see what it does, also check fuel pump
well done bro ,,, i have GL 450 mercedes benz 4matic 2011,,,, the car isnt cranking now before it takes long crank rotation to start ,,, and i give it jump also but no start NO CRANK bro pls reply ... where is your location or send me your phone number, i am located at NYC thanks
hi Shahid thanks for your comment, n sorry to hear that, im in brentwood long island ny unfortunately not that close from you, it might be a weak or damaged starter, God bless you.
@@JM-AUTOthanks for your reply bro, can you please tell me how much it cost ,,,labour and part,,, is there any reliable mechanic you know in Staten island. or I can tow the car to your workshop.pls reply 😊 thanks.
@@shahid2444 thanks for your interest; I don't know mechanics in that area but labor should be about $150 /200 and starter about $150 in autopart store but in dealer should be much more
Well done. I have to do ours now. Thx for the detail on removal/install. I am also replacing the feed harness (big fat wire) - starter/alternator/battery - when I do the starter. Wish me luck!
@@JM-AUTO did the starter today. Hardest part was the little heat shield lol - I also ran the new wiring harness. GL450 starts up so nice now. Very happy now.
Great job with explaining the process. Did starter replacement on my 2010 Mercedes yesterday after watching this video. Thanks for posting.
im glad you did it and thank you for your beautiful comment
I wanted to thank you for so well explaining it. I looked at so many videos but they suck! Yours was beautiful. GOOD JOB!!!

Great video! 🤘😎

Did your car have a weak start? Is that why you replace it ?

@@JM-AUTO my car starts strong when cold, but weak when it’s warmed to operating temperature.

That is really good price shop near my house need $2500
Great video but I am sure 2013 you have to remove transmission to replace starter
Yes it is harder to remove it on the 13 because the engine size changes but I think still can be taken out with out removing the engine
Do you have a video to replace starter on gl 2013
yes is this one here
Good video
2017 and 2010 the same replace or not? Please
no on a 2017 is different, is is not the same
Just did my ml550 yesterday!
Great instructions!
Thank you!
thanks a lot
@@JM-AUTONext up ‘02 ML500 water pump!
The fun never stops!
I took my car to the shop they need $2500 to replace starter
that is definitely way too much $
That is 2010, 2013 is different no room at all
I anyone have gl 2013 starter replacement will be helpful
