I have a '98 C240 which has one of the dodgy crankshaft pulleys. The part number which you can see on the pulley is A112 035 00 00. Apparently this number along with A112 035 06 00 was subject to a recall in the States due to the outer metal rim coming off the inner one... there is an elastomer sandwich in between. This may puncture the sump and the timing cover.Details of this recall are here:

The recall is due to "a supplier quality problem"!

How likely is Mercedes UK to replace this item as it is a well known sub standard quallity problem?

What is the correct part number for replacement?

How much is the pulley?

Any comments would be appreciated!
