ferny Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Has anyone had any experience of changing one? I've been asked to do it but I don't want to get half way through and get stuck or break some unfathomable sensor. Workshop time is apparently six hours so probably a whole weekend job for a novice!

Nick Jones Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 No idea. Newish and Merc with a book time of 6 hours I'd guess it'd be a howling b*st'd. Book time for cambelt change on my A6 is 5 hours and that took all weekend and a fair amount of skin. Could try asking on Retro-rides in tech section but I suspect the answer will be RLF!NickPS, if charging in beer, bear in mind that Merc dealers will be charging at LEAST £ 100/hour and 6 hours (plus the other 20 odd it might take) adds up to a fair amount of beer!

ferny Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 I've looked into it and it doesn't seem too bad, just loads to take off. Prices from dealers vary from �600-1800 for the job including parts.http://forums.mercedesclub.org.uk/showthread.php?t=74028&highlight=inlet+manifold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
