2002 E55 AMG, my fave!
Roberto Moreno You won the tool!! Email me at legitstreetcars@gmail.com
👍 👍
@@LegitStreetCars can you possibly shed some light on my situation? '00 ML55 AMG with bad driver side wheel bearing, and wallowed out upper ball joint mounting hole. Will ML320 knuckle fit? Just don't have the money to get a new one currently. Found several on eBay.... Just want to make sure of fitment before I drop the hammer and buy one.... I know that ML500 would work but not sure about the ML320.....with higher speed capability and all.
Amazing video brother. Just love the way you make it look easy. Can't wait to do it to my S350
I just bought one last week my first one ever n its my favorite too finally I couldn afford it lol
Can't wait to do this to my daily!
It's a tad more difficult on the V12 cars but nothing you can't handle. Get the tool though.
I think Tavarish already has the tool from changing the mounts on his SL 55
What's that....someone say Tavarish is a tool?!?
That is not nice guys!!!!
@@appleaday3868 sl55 is a V8 not a V12. The V12 mounts are more difficult
Make sure to comment your favorite AMG or Mercedes model. I'll pick a winner at random for the engine mount tool.
Pre facelift 2003 SL 500.
I used to have a 2011 e63 AMG. I love that car but wasn't very useful in Maine.
LegitStreetCars would love to see a video on common failures, things to look for and maintenance items associated with the GL series, more specifically the CDI powered variants. Very intrigued by the MB Diesel SUVs as I have owned diesels but MBs seem to be plagued with problems.
2006 C55 AMG lol black on black just like mine.
CDI engines are pretty much as reliable as it gets when it comes to mercedes. Some things you should watch out for is build up around the injectors (pretty easy to check, just pop the engine cover off), for engines in the V configuration (V6 and V8), a common failure is the balance shaft, as well as the crank position sensor. Another thing that tends to go out at around 180k miles is the water pump, as well as the glow plug relay. Again, all of the problems i've mentioned are quite minor, but things like the balance shaft could cause you to have a pretty bad day if it fails. I personally have an e320 cdi, and it's been bulletproof so far. Hope this helps!
Im from Germany and actually Lemförder is considered to be the best producer of aftermarket parts on the german market. This is as close as youll get to OEM quality :)
you will find in alot of cases the lemforder logo on Mercedes genuine parts, especially this era
Domnaek what about Bosch is it good?
karam129 Its also very good quality, especially for sensors and brakes
lol please dont listen to @Domnaek. hes right about the lemförder parts which really are sort of the highest quality you can buy for german cars but bosch is just terrible. there is almost no other company for sensors but please dont buy any other parts from bosch.
Mike F Well how come Bosch is the OEM for basically all ABS and ESP systems? :D
Love your videos Alex! From watching your videos I have now purchased a 2005 e55 amg! Watching your videos I feel a lot more confident owning the car and working out any problems that may come.
Love this series man, i've had my 04 clk 500 for 8 years now still love her like day 1
Rewatching this one for replacing the E55K mounts and flex discs as soon as my package from FCP Euro gets here. Doing the trans flush, conductor plate and connector while I’m under it and still have ball joints and control arms to install now that it’s getting nice in Texas. I just wanted to say that I really appreciate what you do Alex, I would not even own an AMG and enjoy the rewards of keeping one in tip top condition by your own wrenches if it were not for your channel and the work you put into your content. Thank you!
Sooo... How did it go buddy ?
I just bought an 05 S56 AMG so of course that's my favorite. Been having a lot of fun so far fixing things. Hasn't been bad, and a lot easier to work on than expected.
Awesome video Alex, just did my mounts on SLK 55. Also loosened the tie-bar, both mounts came out from
The lower front. Did not have to remove the exhaust. The extension tool is a life saver :)
Magnificent video! Just what I was looking for. I've seen another video about the engine mounts, which I will be doing on the CLS55 next week, but yours is better. I'll be removing the exhaust on both the left and right to get to the mounts, but your tip about that little tool is a real life saver for someone like me. I'll be ordering one right after I finish this comment.
Once again, thank you so much for these videos, giving away all this info to shmucks like me for free is incredible. Out of all the guys doing it, you're the best as of right now in my opinion. Great job!
Your content on these cars has made me want to fetch myself an E55 AMG. The engine note is lovely and the exterior is just as much.
Yet another great video! You were the person who convinced me to go out to buy a w211. It's a great daily driver and an amazing car.
The W211 E55 is hands down my favorite AMG model. After watching some of your videos I was convinced to buy one last weekend and am already in love with the car!
Favorite AMG is the CLS55 AMG W219. I just bought my first Benz it's a 04 CLK320 and love it but I do need to change out my engine mounts and transmission mount... Thanks a million for the videos you make. It makes me a lot more convenient to work on my Benz myself... Thanks again
These great videos remind me to keep leasing, no more than 36 moths, zero headaches everything covered under Factory Warrantee... 2019 E63S Favorite model...
So great Alex! Because of these vdos, I am now hunting for my SL55 that I have always wanted. Keep these AMG vdos flowing!
I like the idea that you have a plan before you do any of your work! Great Job!
Great video! That is a big job but you definitely simplified the process. Also that was a good tip using that sticky stuff to prevent the bolt from dropping
good reference !
My 2005 R171-SLK350 was resuscitated by exchanging the engine mounts yesterday. Thanks so much for uploading this video clip.
Thanks for the video! I replaced my W211 E320 motor mounts and trans mount few months ago. The top bolts of the motor mounts were the most difficult part IMO. I removed the exhaust on the both side and used a flex head ratchet to remove the top bolts, then jacked up the motor a bit to get the clearance to replace them. The trans mount was a lot easier and the cross member does not need to be removed. Once again good job! Oh and I love the new AMG C63 Coupe!
It's day and night difference before and after the engine mount replacement. My car had serious vibration on low RPM before and it's totally quiet and smooth after. Very satisfied! BTW I used the same brand of motor mounts/trans mount.
I'm just now watching this video as a long time viewer and subscriber as I'm about to venture on a 2003 sl500 for a buddy that needs mounts as well as valve cover gaskets gonna be a great weekend now! Thanks Alex!!!
Awesome repair. Thanks
I'm absolutely loving your videos, man! thanks!
Great tool! massive time/knuckle saver!
I'm on MY 3 SLK R 171 . And now finally got my hands on the SLK 55 AMG PERSONAL FAV. LIGHT WEIGHT AND POWERFUL.
I have an 04 e500 non4matic...I was able to replace both (one at a time) as you say, the passenger side comes right out... I was able to get the drivers side by loosening the steering rack , anytime I can avoid messing with exhaust , is a good thing....oh, and that special tool is great! thanks for that!
I've been a mechanic since 1969 and I always check Google for videos or written essays to do repairs. Haven't worked as a full time mechanic since 1989. Mostly do work on family and friends vehicles once in awhile.
Do you still work on Mercedes
Thanx for the video, on replacing engine mounts.
Thanks for sharing. I'm sure that this is something that I need to do soon on my SL550.
Great vid! Thanks for putting up the knowledge in fixing and maintaining these vehicles, looking to purchase an E55 AMG soon, would like a wagon though.
I do really enjoy your videos. I'm looking at a few models, but the E55 is really standing out to me, although I've been eyeing a couple of S classes as well..
I so wish I had a lift like that, or could fit one in my garage. Did the same job on an 04 E320 but had to pull off both sides of the exhaust... was a huge PIA... but yeah, ever benz I've had feels like it went from old to new after new motor mounts.
great job! i did the engine mounts on my w201 2.0 in the garage
Love all your videos man huge fan!
W211 E55 my dream car, the car that got me into cars. I own a 210 E55 and would really like to get a 211 one day.
Hey Alex, great channel! My favorite Mercedes model for years has been the '94 E500, but I think you may have won me over with your E55 AMG...
Just want to say I really love the content and the work that you do on these videos, man do I wish you had an early 997!
As usual awesome advices! Thank you so much!
My favorite AMG model is the W124 300CE 6.0 Hammer! I just freaking love the bold look and the M117 engine sound
Thanks so much for this video!
It's actually cool you have to get to work after wrenching. You're one of us!
Thanks so much for covering this! Need to replace the mounts on my 01 E320 4matic Wagon. With 220,000 miles and Pennsylvania rust, this will no doubt be a challenge to accomplish on my garage floor with the wagon on jack stands. Plan on replacing the corroded fuel line from the tank to the fuel filter as well while I'm under there. At what point do you decide a car needs to go? I get way too attached to them and continue fixing them.
Thanks for the dope vids Alex!!
Since you mostly focus on the M 113 engine can you tell us what common issues with the M272/273 engines and 7G Tronic are appart from the balance shaft gear and what to look out for? Would be much appreciated!
Great video!
My favorite AMG is the pre facelift W204 C63!
R230 SL55 AMG saw one on the norchlife on my 18th birthday and had a picture on my desk all the way through collage.
James Bambury SL55 is one of the most beautiful Mercedes ever
Do a pair of Eurocharged shorty headers!! Totally not because I just ordered a pair and have no idea how to install them 😅
Beautiful job thank you
Thanks for the videos, I enjoy your channel
ML 55 AMG is gonna be my next car and is by far my favourite... So classy and the only 55 you can own whilst having kids and a dog...
A few days ago, I replaced the mounts in a friends '07 E320 Bluetec. The driver side was really easy, but the passenger side needed the air box and heat shield removed. The whole job took a little over an hour with a lift. Definitely a lot easier than the C55.
AMG Hammer FTW!
Nice video, my 74k mile car developed a vibration, seems like it's the engine mounts especially since I spent the last 5k miles practicing heel and toeing an automatic (IT WORKS!).
Hey I just replaced the 2 front engine mounts with lemforder mounts the difference is just amazing ...it's like a new car. Also !!!! I figured out a way to replace both mounts without having to unbolt the exhaust, steering or the altenator! Genius move
I separated the mount from the rubber so it was smaller and I fed the mount down the front of the engine passed the air fan all the to the bottom them I pushed it to the side and into place!! Saved sooo much time. I just put the rubber on the top when it was fitted.
Mercedes CLS 320 CDI.
1997 amg c36. It's the best because i just got one. It's my first amg and its great. I left bmw land. It was hard but im glad i did.
I need that tool! I have the same problem on my c55. Also love your videos
on my 2009 S550 the only hard part was getting a t25 torx bolt out for the heatshield of the motor mount that sat on the driver side. I was able to get both out without dropping the subframe or removing the exhaust. I used a cherry picker and lifted up the engine then shifted it over. prolly put sone stress on the exhaust but i had no issues after. Now on my 2003 E320 I had to drop the subframe
I am a BMW lover, but I like your video. Good presentation and work. Thanks
I have just had my Engine and Trans Mounts replaced on my 2006 E55 and, as Alex said, it has transformed it. Oh so smooth and vibration free now. Cost here, at a local Performance Shop, was just under $800 AUD ($600 US), including Labour.
I should add that the Mechanic said that the engine, with the old collapsed mounts, was sitting on the Sway Bar, so probably a good idea to check that and the bushes as well. That will be my next project.
one of my favorites is the c55
Favourite AMG? W203 C32 amg. Unfortunately they didnt make them for long but if you can find one, get it! Love your videos, thanks for the work involved in putting out this type of content.
Love your channel
Oh man that tool would be great to have! I’m getting ready to replace the motor mounts on my 2008 e350!
Watching somebody working never gets old.
your videos made me obsessed with the C55, bought a 2006 with 154k miles, at the shop getting sorted out. All Money Gone
My favorite AMG is my CL55 AMG, currently working on the ABC system. Hopefully I will receive my parts from FCP soon and I will hard on it and have it back on the road again. Love your DIY videos on AMG cars. :)
So many videos in such a short time :D Awesomeeeee.... :D
would have been the perfect time to install headers!!! great vid thx
The ML55 , my favorite. She was the introduction to the world for "Beefed"up Crossovers. 😈
Nice video Alex!! Me!! I need that tool! The mounts on my W211 E55 are worn out. I just need a quiet weekend to do the job and the right tool of course.
I have a w211 E55 and you def need this tool for motor mounts. The passenger side is easy, plenty of space for it to slide out without removing the exhaust. The driver side is a pain, the steering rack/column will be in the way. I was able to forcefully wiggle out the mount by loosening the steering rack. I prob spent 2 hours just on the driver side mount. Good Luck!
J Howard Thank you for the advice. Yes, I've read on the forums that lowering steering is the easier than removing exhaust.
My favorite AMG Model? CLS63.
Absolutely. Any recommendation on the best years to get?
Favorite AMG is the e55. Love the torque from that Mercedes.
88 MB C300 6.0 V8 AMG HAMMER! Love that car.
Great video, thanks
My favorite Amg car is E55 w211... Cars a beast !!!
That’s awesome Alex, AMG 500E
Hey Alex keep up the good work. My fave is clk gtr.
I have a 2005 Mercedes Benz CDI if they made this car in the AMG I would absolutely fall in love with it I love the w211 chassis by far my favorite I'm still learning a lot about this Mercedes from watching your videos but definitely any Mercedes-Benz AMG and the w211 chassis form would be my favorite thank you for putting all your great information out there and I love your videos
My favorite 2017 C300 Sports Package, red interior
Awesome as usual. Not a chance in Hell I'll ever buy a Benz or volunteer to work on one BUT it makes for really good entertainment and I learn something new in the process. WIN - WIN.
R65 AMG. The best soccer mom sleeper.
SL 73 AMG R 129. I used to have one in 1998. Was iconic!
my favorite AMG is s55 w220 for the raw v8 sound Naturally Aspirated and the feel
Awesome video, that driver side mount is really buried in there! Great video series by the way.
I have engine and transmission mounts on order for my BMW Z4M as we speak...feels like the engine is about to fall out.
204 chassis C63. Love that car!
E55 my favorite, the family man attainable amg👍
Gotta say that my favorite is the W297 CLK GTR!
Once again, wonderful video Alex. A like from me!
My 3 yo kid plays with my tools also :) I love when he opens the tools drawer
My favourite is the clk63 black, looks so mean!
2006 mercedes e55 amg has to be my favorite that ive driven so far
My favorite amg is the w205 c63s amg. I’d love that tool btw. Thanks.
great job
E55 AMG totally my fav!
On the e55 i took bolts off rack without completely removing it and squeezed out the driver side & passenger side took 10 mins
My uncles 2006 S65 AMG. You have taught us so much....
Really Enjoying Your Content! Currently Sorting Out My 03 CL55...I Could Use That Motor Mount Wrench!!!
$20 on amazon, or just comment your favorite Mercedes and you might win it!
Came back to this video to refresh myself before I attempt it on my 04 E55. I've been in denial about my mounts for a month but they're so bad that it's started to pull lines loose and causing vacuum leaks! Eek, I really should have replaced them a few months ago.
w211 e55 amg wagon is my favorite.
Woooooh great help I drive E 230 W 211
Alex I think your kids installed the part already your good lol
As always great info 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a silver 03 e55 too but my fave would be a E63s
