Hi all.

I was a member here before, but could not login with my old account, so had to create a new one. Been inactive too long I guess; the Merc has been behaving well these last 11 years :).

I had been experiencing a slipping clutch lately, so had to do something. I made a youtube time-lapse video of the whole procedure, including some extra work like glow plug exchange and middle exhaust swap. Hope it can help others.

Start spraying all fixings in penetrating
oil two weeks before u start.on my w 168 the subframe bolts were a b and I thought torx heads were going to round off or shear.
If yr not in a hurry it can be done without breaking anything.

My Indy cringes every time I ring to say there is an eml on in the 169, it’s been a pig of a car over the last 6 years we’ve had it, but my wife loves it and swapping to anything else is just too expensive, we did think about converting it to electric that way she gets the best of both worlds, no more issues with the engine and gearbox, and no more devil fuel
