Mercedes…..quality car? Why are there soooooooo many home mechanics trying to make their cars good after maybe just 50,000 miles? Mercedes…..you are no better than a Ford Mondeo. (But 3x the price).

Great to see your W211 achieve 200K+ miles! For ten years I've owned a black 2005 E350 AG, now with 69K miles. It's a joy to own. I love your attention to factory specs, doing it right... eg: the correct coolant mix using distilled water as diluent :-)

Where are you situated

Good how to! Mine was the driver side. The biggest pain I found was installing the new lock. In mine the actuator INSERTS into the white flashing which is formed to drape outside of the lock. Best to slide it into that plastic piece in a clockwise motion with one hand on top of the actuator feeling the fit, and the other pushing up from the bottom of the mechanism. Everything assembled, now the window won't go down. Since light is fading, I'll leave it 'till tomorrow to reboot the system. Again, nice job on this and your other videos!

very informative, I love how you explained it step by step, thank you!

No offense intended, but this video made me sick to my stomach. The constantly moving camera, that is. The content seems very useful, but I need some dramamine to continue.

aren't mercedes amazing? with all the over engineering and complexity they are still easy to fix and i love how everything fits so tightly and perfectly you never have to struggle lining up nuts and bolts, clips or forcing stuff to fit .... for the most part lol and with a decent scanner you cut down on the troubleshooting time it's very satisfying to fix a benz and think of all the money you saved

its a holiday your not gonna find a crush washer

love it

Great video thank you. I seperated the prop shaft on the car once I marked up. Piece of string to support the shafts. Diff flex welded on with the heat I think but wd 40 shorted that and bug f.off screw driver.

Thanks you helped me out bigtime. I needed to fix the same part on my car. Drives like a dream!!!!

09 e350. Do you think replacing this SAM would fix my left rear brake that is not illuminating when I apply brakes. Iv'e installed a new bulb assembly and still the same issue so i figure it is not the bulb.

Thank you for this video!

Id like to see more functional talk of repair function. less nuts/bolts which we all do in any job. Ive had fuel gage failure and several issues and probably the rear sam, Id be testing function before ever replacing all the panels.

you make the best videos .. i thought you had to loosen the shock mount, caliper to be able to remove the ball joint side but you didn't so this is so much easier ..mhh

Spot on, had to change mine out based on the same issues. Thanks for the the video.

I like all your videos but It seems to me that your wet sanding would completely remove all the clear coat you applied.

Everyone has the same unanswered question! How did you get that last cover off??!!!

No way I could get the Inner race out. Ended up cutting a “groove” and cracking with a chisel. Still had to hammer it out. Next time I’ll just buy the whole assembly and save myself some headache.

I replaced the actuator. When I want to bring the window down to install the door panel, in about 3” down seems the it hits something and do not go any further down. What is causing that?

I wouldnt put a bearing in like that but if it works it works

By the way, Car-D- Ologist is such a clever name. 😊❤

A masterful demonstration of how to replace a door lock actuator. You are a great teacher. At times I was getting dizzy with the camera movements and then realized the camera man was a young helper who did the best he could under the circumstances. More power to both of you and best wishes. Glen

Thank you for the helpful video.

For the next time you can warm it up with a hair dryer for few seconds. Than it will slide very easy inside the Rubber.

Ghost / spirit known as the Knights Templar Freemasonry they work all the obeah for the secret society club.

You did this whole job with the car on jack stands? Wow.

Thank you! This was so clear and helpful!

Lovely job but please buy a tripod!

Thanks 🫡

thx 👍

There's another video where someone cleaned corrosion off the front PCB SAM module (under the hood) using stiff brushes and Isopropyl Alcohol and it fixed the problem. As long as corrosion doesn't short out components or damage any electrical traces it could be salvaged.

Thanks you for this! very helpful!

Thank you my dear brother You are very smart.

Thank you very much my dear brother

Thank you for making this video, it was very helpful. I did the same thing you did and replaced my flex discs first and then realized I should have changed the center bearing and support bracket. Now I'm ordering it from FCP Euro and I got to take all that crap out again but at least it will be done right. You are curious, I own a 2007 CL 550 with 230,000 miles on it

Great vid,I have a 2000 E320 Wagon,I think it needs this procedure, I have to let the car warm up alot so the transmision does not give me any problems,feels dry,gears take longer or shift hard,after the car it's really hot transmision works fantastic !

I'm betting the 10mm and screw in the wheel well area on my car is rusted in.

Newbie question, when you do driveshaft job, did you put shift in P or N, to get access to those bolt on flex disc?

Hello; Fine video and very usefull. I was just obliged to transpose it for my E320 CDI, which is a 2001 Modell. I've 2 questions: - do you confirm that there is no reset button of the following oil change alert for these models ? - accordind to your experience, which are the other operations to do at he same time of oil changing ? Thanks a lor for yout work. Sincerely

I need a kit

Definitivamente malisimo, nunca lo recomendaria, mal procedimiento y nunca saco el aire de los conductos por eso chilló la licuadora

From France.I ve a 2.7litre cdi clk 2002. Mercedes here said the rubber boot was out of production. Is it the same piece for all models and do you have parts number.looks identical.

Is that a stock radiator or a z3? I’ve heard people going with z3

Very good video. Just changed all six on my 2006 E320 CDI. No issues. The torque wrench method to remove is a Great tip. Spray penetrating fluid in all the holes and let it sit a few days or so. Drive the car as normal with many heat and cold cycles and it will make removal a lot easier. Take your time and things will work fine.

Hello friends,Is it necessary to loosen the center bearing support to remove the flexible discs from both ends of the transmission?

Nice floor

I have. A 2005 CDI

very educative. thank you
