I'm not sure which is most impressive, the fact that you did this in your home workshop with no vehicle hoist, the fact that you did this alone, whilst filming it or the fact that you didnt end up with a bunch of useless scattered parts at the end and had a running car again when you finished up......seriously, well done man, great video and I especially loved the meticulous engine alignment steps when you lowered the new one in, that's patience and you demonstrated why it pays off to be that way with one of these German jigsaw puzzles.
You sir made this look easy. Mine is a 4 matic, the AWD parts make this more difficult. The driver's cv has a half shaft run through the oil pan... The front diff prop shaft blocks the exhaust bolts and the transmission bolts. Good times.
01:04 It's Like Mercedes Benz is Going Backwards. Its Fu**ed Up how in 09 (I think 08-11) They have this Cool Pop-out Info Screen in the C300's and C350's, But From 2012 They Went With the Smallest Screen that Don't Even have this Cool Pop-Out Factor. Its Just Sad.
It’s possible but I am not sure if it’s worth it, you will have to swap everything ECU, SAMS, Harness,, Ignition, Hood, fenders, bumpers, everything, etc
Got this car in 2017 but I feel in the next few years it will need a new engine. Any recommendations you can give? I also like BMW and would like something with more power while remaining decent for daily commutes.
@@Jbpgarage i have a socket on the crank at the front of the motor, spark plugs are out have had it soaking in pb blaster and atf everything works except car wont even try to start and i cannot with a breaker bar move the crankshaft in any direction
What is the biggest engine I can fit? I can cut a hole in the hood if I need to. I was going to start with just the headers but if I can put new headers on an entirely new engine that would be perfect.
You can swap it with a 3.5L engine M272 engine. You will need the Engine control module from the same MY and it will need to be matched to the car by a company who specializes in Mercedes Ecus. The 3.5l makes 272 hp to 283hp depending on the year and model. Later 3.5l engines have better exhaust and flow but might not work with your cars transmission as it will shift earlier than expected.
02:13 Really? I Would think Not, If this is More Room than a BMW, Then I Might Think Twice Then. I'm Actually Looking for a Way To See If I Can Remove that Shield That Runs Behind The Engine, Because I'm Trying to Replace the PCV/Breather Hose, But There's Literally No Room, I've Seen People Removing the High Pressure Fuel Pump Just To Replace it Because its in the Way and that's Just And Unnecessary Work that Don't need be done.
Sometimes the ease is worth that extra effort. Maybe replace it while your at it? Any maintenance or cleaning you can do in the process. While making the job easier too.
I wondered the same thing. I just discovered this video and I'm going to use it as a walkthrough to get my clk320 back on the road. Not the same exact engine but incredibly similar.

Thank appreciate your kind words.
Great video. Get the extended harness for the ecu and move it off the engine so it won't get destroyed by the heat.

What did you swap into it ? And I wish I could do my own C300 to AMG conversion
The same, 300 engine with less mileage.
Good job, can you do a video of the test drive, you made that job look easy, i'd love to see how it performs on the freeway.
How much did you charge in labor? And what city are you in?
Imprrssive work! Wanna do it on a 2024?😂 let me know lol
That was most impressive thanks for sharing that with us
This Might sound like a Silly Question. But, Is That Engine Boarder Plate 11:44 Removable?
Great job wow you did an amazing job
What were the doohickeys you hooked the crane to? I saw you screw the loops on. What are they called/where do you get them? I'm doing the same job.

nice work done. is it also possible to swap a v6 to a v8 on 2014 c300 .
Tryna see the same thing I have one
@@RDKSHOTU same do you know if its possible

@@kidsupremethemansupreme yes it is but like he said u have to Swap everything I’m gonna do it to mines tho it’s cost
@@Jbpgarage I think the cls550 is a direct bolt in swap...
I wanna manual swap my cls 550
So this would fit in a 2009 c300? Crazy

I think it really depends on your budget, how much you are willing to spend.
Wow very god job💪💪💪
i have the exact same car that im going to put another motor in. How did you turn the torque converter to take the bolts out thanks
From the crank.
@@Jbpgarage my crankshaft wont move any suggestions
@beantownhero617 what do you mean, the engine doesn’t turn over?
@@Jbpgarage i have a socket on the crank at the front of the motor, spark plugs are out have had it soaking in pb blaster and atf everything works except car wont even try to start and i cannot with a breaker bar move the crankshaft in any direction
@beantownhero617 is there oil in it, if so is there coolant in the oil?

actually @brarautorepairs , a 5.5L M273 from an E-chassis can fit in the w204, infact its a direct bolt in
Brabus stuck a v12 inside
Great job!

How many labour hours took the full job?
About 10 hours.
can change engine 300 for 350
Why no footage of you removing transmission bolts?
I figured you couldn’t miss them.

Will a c350 engine fit a c300?
Yes
Engine m113?
No
M272
How much did you spend on this swap
About 3k.
How many miles were on the engine?
now can you show me how to put a m156 into a c300 hahaha
Anyone else know why it beeps 7000 times when you turn it on? It gets really annoying not gonna lie
Seatbelt warning. Idk why but it does
