  • ► The Mercedes-Benz C250 was a great car but not without its hang-ups. As the model ages, you'll likely have to replace the valve cover gaskets due to oil leaks. The valve cover gasket seals the valve cover to the cylinder head and keeps all of the engine oil inside the engine to lubricate the valvetrain. A leaking valve cover gasket can allow debris to enter one of the most critical places inside the engine, potentially causing a more significant problem down the road.
    Another problem you might encounter is oil filling the spark plug tubes. Part of the valve cover gasket are the seals around the spark plugs. Those seals can dry up and allow oil to leak into the spark plug tubes, which will cause further problems with the ignition system. Replacing the gasket is very doable in a DIY setting and can be completed in just a couple of hours at the slowest.
    Watch along as Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er tackles a valve cover gasket replacement on a Mercedes-Benz C250.

    I know you sell Land Rover parts too. It might be a small audience, but there are ZERO maintenance videos for LR4s (or anything else) with the SCV6 (the AJ126 engine).

      I used small pieces of paper towel (MANY of them) rolled up and pushed them down one at a time to soak it up. I saw another video where they said they used brake fluid cleaner and blew it all out (I assume they covered the hole with towels when they did it or you would have oil blown everywhere!).

    Hello, I have the M 272. Im looking on FCP for my vehicle and under Valve Cover Gasket it shows Anaerobic Gasket Maker and then a small round 27214110780 Cover Gasket and then under Valve Cover Gasket Kit it just has Permatex 51813 Gasket Maker. Now im confused.

    • @fcpeuro
      @fcpeuro  Год назад

      Hey there timb7775! The M272 and M273 engine family use a valve cover design that incorporates the upper portion of their cam bearings. As a result, these engines use solely the anaerobic sealant you see to affix the valve cover to the cylinder head rather than a typical rubber gasket. The perk to this is that the valve covers almost never are the source of an oil leak on these engines; the crux is that removing and reinstalling the valve cover for something else can be a tedious job. The part number you included is the seal between the throttle body and the plastic air intake boot located near your firewall at the rear of the engine.
      If you're already in there and are trying to reseal things, the sealant will be what you're looking for to seal the valve covers. If you're attempting to seal up the leak, take a look at our "Common M272/273 Oil Leaks" video! That one may point you in the right direction.
      Happy Wrenching!
