I did this job. I ordered that plastic cowl you removed from pelican parts 130.00. Surprised you didnt change because your was weathered damaged also. Good video good job. I changed my wiper blades.🤔 When parts are removed thats a great time replace...Good luck bro beautiful car
This will fix hot air blowing out rear vents and semi cold out front vents. 2 shops told me this was not the problem so i did it myself. Make sure you bleed air out after you replace valve.
Yes, I completely forgot to order one, but not difficult to do so I'll order once this week most likely, and yes also a good idea to replace worry blades while you have them off, I'll pay a link to them on FCP euro! Appreciate you watching and your feedback as well!
Thanks for the video, it was a big help. Two things... I didnt have to remove the intake to get that front hose off/on. Getting those metal clips off the heater control valve was a nightmare. They do not come off easily and the rear bottom one was very difficult to reach. Every video I saw made it seem as if getting these clips off was trivial.
Yeah I wish I could have filmed the way I pulled the clips off, I just needed both hands because I do remember struggling with it for a good 5 minutes lol
My cls550 is leaking water to the passenger floor I think is because my cowl is missing the side hoses... any idea where those hoses are supposed to drain the water?
All plastic parts on a mercedes that has coolant going through them becomes brittle and breaks easily after about 7 years, so keep an eye on your other coolant plastic parts.
Hello I have a cls55, and I think I need to do this job. I woke up today and all of sudden I have no heat! I don’t think it’s heater core related to having cold A/C, no swampy/sweet smell, and my heat worked great one day and didn’t the next. My question is, did you happen to notice any symptoms before it went out? I also noticed I can’t seem to find much info on a heater core replacement online… or a video.
@@thiccls3948 good note. In my case it’s just cold air when I decide to use the heat. Its just stays at a temperature cold AF. I’ll be ordering the part, hopefully it solves my issue. Thanks for the quick reply.
So ended up doing this job today. Ended up only having a bit of hard time removing the lower hose pin, but after that it was a breeze. At first, it didn’t work, but after driving the car, it indeed solved my issue. Thanks so much for this video 🤩 helped big time.
I replaced the control valve without removal of the wiper assembly on my CLS55. Its a bit more fiddly, but doable. Good video 👍
How did you do it? You replaced it from the bottom?
@@dadokum1No, all from the top. It helps if you have smaller hands (which I do haha 😁)

What's the part number?
For the cowl on the cls
Great job on the video. Appreciate you identifying and including tools used for specific tasks.
Appreciate the feedback, thank you!

305 is the best for the rear and use a aftermarket suspension control unit
Yeah currently running 305s on my other cls55, love them!

Nice seat covers.

My symptoms were cold air blasting when setting it to heat and the center console would blow out hot air to rear passengers when the ac was on

@@Loujr2250 Glad this solved your issue, really appreciate you leaving the update! Thank you!
my guy u knwo anything about a bank 2 runnig rich? i cant seem to fix the problem?

10mm spacers in the front and 15mm in the back would help your car.
15mm the 20mm would be too wide and rub
I test fitted a 10 and felt like it wasn't enough, definitely gonna try a 20, work case it doesn't work out and I use the 20 for my drag pack instead
