Slk350 Front Suspension Refresh
The wife's 2013 SLK 350's front suspension had some play in it. Found it to be the Cross strut on 1 side and the Torque strut on the other side.

My C6 Corvette's fuel door would not latch closed. The spring inside of the mechanism had rusted away. I found a replacement spring and replaced it. T My spring size was 5/16 inch diameter and I cut it to 0.80 length. The better size spring is 1/4 inch diameter and should be about 3/4 inch in length.

Well my wife's SLK350 roof started leaking again! I dove into it trying to fix it and finally got it worked out. i ended up adjusting the actual roof and windshield gap.

    After this repair mine cleared after trying before screwing down but then after fixing in place the dreaded lights came back on. I cleaned the ground point below the battery & then ran through an auto bleed (without bleeding) using my scan tool. That worked, drove a couple miles, all ok 🤞

      According to NGK at least, if you use anti seize then you alter the torque needed so you risk over torquing the plugs and damaging them.

    I am trying to perform a trans fluid flush on my wife's '19 SLC 43. Do you know if there is a transmission cooler return line that you can remove to flush out dirty ATF while keep on adding new fluid until the return line fluid becomes clean (basically using internal trans pump to push the fluid out). I performed this flush method on many other makes and models (Lexus, BMW, Infiniti, etc). This is going to be my first attempt on a Mercedes 722.9 :)

    Hello i just disconected the front shockers to evaluate them and them put them back again in place. But, the problem now is that when the shockers were disconected all the suspension fluid from them and the reservoir got empty. After that, we just put 2.5l of suspension fluid back in the reservoir and started the truck but it stayed in low position and didn't get up even to neutral height. We didnt took much care of taking the air out of the system or preventing it from getting inside in the first place. My question is if that maybe be the cause of my system faliure? (Before disconecting the shockers the system was working great) thank you

    • @maintainersgarage
      @maintainersgarage 2 месяца назад

      Maybe it failed or maybe you have a ln air lock in front shocks. Try bleeding againand you can put front suspension lifted in the air to force movement

  • @ManzellaBob
    @ManzellaBob 3 месяца назад

    Oil looks thick, is the engine cold? Oil should be warm. You should fill the new filter with new oil before installing it. Wear gloves, ditch the watch. Always remove the filter first. It may not want to come off. Mobil1 filters are more restrictive than GM OE filters. I use a PF48E on my 2010. Not that it matters but torque is measured in Lb-Ft not Ft-Lbs.
