Hey Guys, Quick question. How much oil is going into W215 CL600 M275 end of 2002 facelift model? In the WIS it is saying it is either 1.6L or 1.9L. 1.6L is going into Rear Axle Differential 240mm in rear axle differential 240V 1.9L is going into Rear Axle Differential 240mm in rear axle...

I know :) I would not trust shocks from alibaba My dad was already convinced about ignition coils which were piece of junk for the M275’s sooo :)

It is a good suspension - the issue we have is there is way too much thingns to replace. Two shocks for sure - one due to failed plunger sensor. All the hoses needs to be replaced. I will not rebuild the hoses done this on two and hydraulic shops in Ireland are just terrible. Brand new set of...

V8 are not that bad :D I have seen people were dropping subframe with the old type of the brackets in V12's. I am still thinking to remove everything from the car - ABC is going away anyway :D

Hey Everyone, My M275 finally got back to life after sitting for a while in the garage. Ignition system has been all replaced with V12icpack stuff and engine is running perfect again. Car has been also fully resprayed in the same color. I just love this car so it is staying with us. I have also...

Lemforder are good - from what I know they also use Hydro-Bearings. There is a lot of them sold as fake so becarefull. I would go with MB mounts.

I bought engine mounts at my dealer. At the end they will last good few years so it is really worth spending a bit extra money. I know from a lot of people that they had a lot of issues with their aftermarket engine mounts. MB ones are filled with oil is well so this is making a huge difference.

Did you check intake manifold? Sometimes they can crack and you have to replace them. At this point I would suggest to take it to the Mercedes Dealer or a good indie that will be able to perform some more tests on SD. I will try to run SD in Test mode to see what type of checks SD is...

Hey Guys, I have completed the replacement of the Engine Mounts on OM651 on W204. To be honest with you I do not understand why WIS is saying to unbolt alternator and A/C compressor. The right engine mount from the driver side is a little bit harder as we need to take out Air Filter Box and the...

I am taking this to consideration and hopefully they are not that badly worn out. I will have a bigger job after new year replacing mounts on M275 which finally was curred of missfires.

It looks like I will have to do it. Looking at it from the engine bay I do not really understand why they are saying that we need to remove the whole DPF and also unbolt the alternator and A/C Compressor - it looks like there is enough room to do this without removing them. I will find out...

Currently I have about 120 000 miles on it. I can actually feel it that it is more shaky as it was. Sometimes after harder acceleration engine can go into vibrations, it happens few times. Last service on the car was at the end of October this year - since then I drove around 5000/6000 miles up...

I was trying to find some online DIY if somebody done this kind of job on OM651 but it seems there is nothing out there. There are toturials for M271, M274, M272, OM642 but nothing relating OM651.

Hey Guys, I got all brand new engine mounts and gearbox mount from my dealer. I was reading over WIS document explaining the whole procedure of what needs to be taken out etc. It looks like there is a lot to do it. You have to unbolt alternator and also A/C compressor and also document is...

I will make sure I will do this. Guys can you also tell me what do you think about this company? I wan to refurb brake calipers is well as previously some asshole hammered the brakes with a hammer :D causing the paint to go off in some places. https://www.bcs-automotive.co.uk

I would say getting the original size connectors and all the T-Connectors and L-Connectors. I will create a separate thread about the work I am putting into this car. Currently it is being re-sprayed.

Which sizes would you recommend, I can get new connectors for that is well. I thought 3mm to 3mm should be tight enough

We say inside will be 3mm and outside is 7mm - they are silicon hoses. I will have to get new t pipes for this pipe. I have meassuered the connections where t pipes are connected and on most of the sensors etc it looks like that the end bit that is sliding inside the t pipes is 3mm

What about vacum hoses which should I biy. Does it matter if the inside of the hose will be a little bit larger than original 1mm or this doesn’t really matter?

Decission was taken and we will keep ABC - I am slowly getting the lsit of parts required and even if I will have to spend 1500-2000EUR I will do this to keep as nice as possible. Coilover conversion will cost nearly the same. I did not want to create a new topic so I will ask here. I want to...
