My mercedes have some sound dug dug from the rear is this will be the issue diff fluid?? In slow speed it comes allot and while climbing hill it comes.

Thanks!!

@RandomCar Which model of QuickJack did you use for the GLA 45? Did you need to purchase any special extensions or accessories to get it to work? Any other notes to consider? Thanks in advance!

The service manual states: 1) the parking brake must not be applied, 2) the shifter must be in neutral (N), and the 3) the rear wheels must be turned 5 revolutions (this final item is so that "all of the fluid can be drained from the differential"). From my research online, the turning of the wheels does not appear to allow for any more fluid removal than otherwise. Thus, I'm assuming 1) through 3) are all irelevant. Anyone happen to know for sure? Also, does anyone happen to know the part numbers (or dimensions) of the filler and drain plug crush washers?

How to find the exact transmission number ? I have a CLA 2015, is there only one model?

Thank you for sharing

Great video

5.8L

Very informative. I just hope you put some links where did you bought the following: - Motul DCTF - Transmission filter kit - Dip stick - Anti foaming Thank you

Where'd you get the workshop manual?

Great video. Thanks!

The oil pan is tightened at 8 nm. The 30 nm is for the drain plug.

thanks so much for video . tool me 2 hour thanks again for video

2016 CLA 250 4matic,,,,,, So the bottom plug is for draining, and the top for refill? I don't have jack stands, wondering if Joe's garage could handle this?

Isn’t there a bolt and clip holding the CV axel into the transmission? This video is showing the 24 spindle transmission end of the axel just freely placed into the transmission with the steering knuckle side of the axel holding everything in place. That seems odd.

What about big circle and rear heater😅

Dont think my 2016 CLA 45 AMG SB has had the rear diff oil changed, ever! Could this be what is causing a slight grinding / squeaking noise at low speeds from the rear left hand side.

I use to be a mechanic. I work on my own car's. My suggestions is if you got spare time to play with it is not a hard job. It took me total of 3.5 hr including tuning and reset. Dealership quote me about 860AUD I brought all the parts for 648. Not included a 14mm hex and a dipstick 😮

Genuine question how do you know how far you’re going down on the dip stick? Just as it doesn’t look like you put it all the way in? Thank you

What is the link or part number for the dip stick ?

Damn u paid $1500 for that lift?

I really enjoyed the video.

Thanks much for this straightforward video. This is my project this week and this is extremely helpful. I also like the approach - just the facts, no wannabe influencer vibe.

So with everything that needs to come out, do a spark plug change while doing the front struts/sway bar links, water pump and save multiple hours later on :D

Hey you forgot your Loctite😊

10K mi. diff. fluid came out looking sort of good. 30k mi. came out like a sludge. I think I'm going to re-do it with my next engine oil change.

I put in a new oem on the passeger side. It was clicking up a hill and the boot was broken. Boot was replaced once!

Nice job great video. If van or any vehicle has close to or 100,000 miles I would change upper intake gaskets, fuel injectors, coils and plugs one and done. I would use dealership parts or the same company that makes the dealership parts. The goal take that cover off as little as possible. I done the plugs first to we just keep learning.

Did you replace the seal

Did it work? Any damages?

Don’t they take 0w20 for oil?

Hi There! Are you by any chance located in the Bay Area, CA?

Great video! Thanks

Sir~~ How to Change front Diff Fluid ????

Hey, do you know how to unplug brake hose from calipers? I want to unplug and paint the calipers, do not want to lose brake fluid

For simplicity's sake, can anyone list out all the tools required for this maintenance? Much appreciated

Any difference for the 8G?

What is the sensor that you unhooked to remove the hoses from the intake at the beginning of the video 2:00

While measuring fluid level,is it necessary to run the engine?

Thanks for making this video! I have a 2019 GLA 45 AMG, and, according to the MBZ spec sheet, the correct fluid is 75W-85. Mine actually has the Dynamic Plus Package, which has a limited slip differential; again, although in a different column on the spec sheet, mine also calls for 75W-85. However, I really only see the 75W-90 LS (LS standing for limited slip) on the market around here (Bay Area, CA). I see from your video that you also used 75W-90 LS (by Mobile 1). Since you did the fluid change, have you learned anything more about the appropriateness of going with 75W-90 LS over 75W-85? Thanks in advance!

What if my cracks aren’t deep can i just add the epoxy with the hardener and it will fix it ? or i have to sand it down and then add the epoxy and hardener?

Hey i got small cracks on this same type of steering so i should wet sand with a 200 then a 1200 and then 3000 and they put polish compound that u put?

14 mm 12-point thinwall aocket, and better use a locking extension.

Thank you very much for sharing. Well explained DIY. I placed a cover over intake openings to prevent anything from falling inside engine. . It took me 5 hours to do. You helped me save $900.00 Nicely done. 10-23-23

More Sienna video please. I own the same car, it getting to the age that a lot of work need to be done.

I’m done with Toyota buying different car😂

Where did you get the procedure documents??

I'm curious how your van runs before and after the job or were you just following scheduled maintenance. I have a 2013 with almost 110,000mi very good 🎥 👍

There is a bleeding if you open the engine cover
