    Thanks for the video mate, its just wonderful how clearly and patiently you explain all, just needed to ask 1 question. What all other, if any, gaskets(seals) do i need to replace during the job other than for intake manifold?

      Hi
      Thank you for watching and for your comment, really appreciated!
      I believe I have already answered that question, but here it goes...
      Ideally I would replace every gasket or seal that gets disturbed during this procedure... simple as that...
      In this case, I was stuck to how much the owner wanted to spend...
      So that is really my advice, will only add a couple of £10 to the bill...

      @@LMAutoRepairs Hello, I believe I have this same issue and was wondering where in the comments did you list the other gaskets/seals that you recommend to be changed at this time of doing this procedure, I tried to scroll through as many as I could, but didnt see where you listed the other gaskets/seals outside of the two oil cooler seals. Can you point them out to me... thanks!

      For the job, When I tackled it... I was initially hunting a boost leak but came to this situation where I knew I was already 3/4 involved in removing the manifolds. I replaced, Both intercooler seals, Seals between the anti-shudder valve, EGR seal, rings on EGR cooler, O rings on intake manifolds, Turbo boost pipe O rings, EGR gaskets, The aluminium link pipe between manifolds, intake manifold gaskets. Unfortunately, It added roughly £80 on top from merc for the seals...

    Years and years later... this great video, full of tips and tricks, is going to help me to do this job (on a Jeep Gd Cherokee - same engine). Thanks for the video.
    I also like your 'learn as you go' approach and according explanations - nothing better than learning from your mistakes ... other than learning from somebody elses 🤩
    One important piece of information missing (I think..) is not to forget to prime the turbo with oil at install or crank the engine over with the injector el. conectors removed.
    You would also want to prime the fuel delivery system. I guess the fact that you had to crank over 8 times saved your turbo (unless you did prime it and did not talk about it)

    Just got the oil cooler freed up on the E350 and noticed a few (annoying) differences which are some that others may run into as well so here is the info: The exhaust side has the kat mounted directly on the turbo, so no short L pipe there. This presents a bit of a challenge since it is only to be removed after loosening a clamp which is factory wise not reachable unless you dismount the crankcase ventilation on the right back of the engine. Also as you noticed there is a bracket holding the exhaust inlet sides on the turbo with 2 bolts on the back, which should be negleckted, just go for the 2 you can do from the top and take the bracket out with it. This i the main stuff, the rest you will figure out on the way. Just make sure you get the inlet runners out together due to the system of plastic adjusters for the swirl valves. Don't want to break those! Most throuble gave me the stuff others caused due to other repairs (rounded bolts etc.)

This will be the second time.. first time it was done by the dealer at 75k miles...car now has 167k mikes and the oil cooler is leaking again... I guess those leaks weather orange or purple... they last for about 75-100k miles. What happened to that top noch German engineering... they can’t figure out how to keep oil in the engine?

    Reason I watched is I am possibly going to pick a 2011 GL350 Bluetech with 175k miles and a list of issues, including this oil cooler leak according to a MB dealer where the car was recently serviced. The dealer said that the oil cooler itself also needed to be replaced for a total job cost of US $3,380. Does the cooler itself typically fail? How would you determine if the cooler itself needs replacement?

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  4 года назад +1

      Hi
      Usually is the seals that fail...
      Never seen one that the cooler was the problem...

      They are not that expensive...

      Sorry for being not careful enough reading the comments. 8 hours is pretty OK. So assuming about €110 per hour incl. VAT it will be around €900 labor work and some money of the spare parts new houses etc. I recommend to also replace the EKAS as it quite often is drained in oil.

    I just did this work on my personal 2013 E350 Bluetec. Apparently they put some GL350 parts that are normally not in a regular Bluetec. When I look up certain parts to get the numbers it shows it does not fit my car. The build date is 10/12.
    My motor has a oil changeover intake near the front. It also has a 1 piece instead of the 2 piece exhaust pipe that attaches to the back of the turbo. A little harder to get out due to the lack of room, but still managed.
    MB also put in the orange seals instead of the purple ones. I thought they found out the the orange ones would leak and no longer installed them on later model years. Do you know anything about that or did I get the wrong information on the year.
    Your video was great and very helpful especially the torque numbers.

I just thought my year and model they had stopped installing the orange ones from when the cars were built. I am going to research it a little more. If MB already knew and still put part in, maybe I can recoup some of my cost. I’ll keep you posted.

    Hi, Early in the video you mention the breather of the pipe from the turbo, I have been told that this and the pipe can also leak so have you experienced this and are they expensive replacements. I have an E350 CDI Blueefficieny and I've seen oil around this area. One other point from watching video is should turbo bolts be replaced?

      @LMAutoRepairs  2 года назад

      Depends how quick/experienced the person doing it is...

      The last one I did, took me about 9 hours or so...

    Hi there. Quick question. I have a newer model 350 bluetec. I took off the engine cover today and noticed some crud around the pipe that just goes onto the turbo where those 2 intake pipes meet. It would be the pipe that goes into the centre of the turbo below the sticker with the QR code. It is a moist sandy type crud that's black. Just below that pipe there is also some residue. Any ideas what it could be? It is still under maintenance plan but need an honest opinion in case they tell me otherwise.

      @@victorsinclair188 I did. First they said it is "sweating" and is normal but I said some residue around any part in the engine isn't normal. They did however change it still under maintenance. They also change the transmission oil even though I only have a out 38000 miles but I guess it would have been replaced had the car not been such low mileage anyway. The item to service is the one to service regardless of kms anyway I guess. Just odd as to what they service and what not. Apparently the cars computer generates a workshop code which tells them what must be serviced. So it could say change the cabin filter yet not the engine one. So odd.

    Hello, a very good video. I will recommend your channel. I have this pb on my e320 cdi. Do you have a garage or do you work at your own count?

    Thanks for the video, very good reference as i have to do the job myself to save $3000. 2 questions. Are the torque numbers the same for the ML320? Looks very similar. What needs to be done with respect to fuel under pressure in the rails and fuel lines before removing? Cheers.

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  6 лет назад +1

      Hi
      I would say the torques should be the same... same engine after all...
      As for the common rail lines, just make sure you keep the key out of the ignition, and leave the car alone for 5 or 10 minutes before start to undo the lines.. the pressure will be gone by then...

    Hello, any issue regarding the turbo with om642 engine? I just purchased a second jeep grand cherokee with this engine with turbo problem it could be related to the oil cooler? I was stuck with my small familly in the middle of the national road within a country side around farm running on idle.

      Hi
      I can't see how the oil cooler would affect the turbo... unless you would loose that much oil that the turbo would ran dry... but you would have bigger issues by then...
      Plus probably a bunch of warning lights for oil pressure, lever etc...
      Have you removed the intake to inspect?

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  6 лет назад

      It can get mixed in there... if the cooler is split inside..
      You need to check it...
