    If it bites you again you could always AAN swap it. That would be pretty damn cool in a Benz. I secretly wanted to do that to my XR4Ti for a while now. ;-)

      True! I should be good moving forward, new head gasket and lower compression should improve reliability

    Have you already replaced the head gasket? I know it’s a common issue even with the m102

      Yes, this video is about doing exactly that

      @obaidaf9714 ah, I had not replaced the headgasket previously. It had become corroded while the car sat prior to my ownership -

      Haha very funny, actually I have a pad that I need to make a stencil for and put a huge Mercedes-Benz logo on prior to installation.. thanks for the reminder, maybe I’ll do that this weekend
