So we are not going to talk how they did this with jacking up the car. Great work!!!!

[@take5yippie]

Hello, I find your video’s very helpful. Question. I struggled to reinstall the engine of my 2002 ml500. Engine would not slip in smoothly into transmission. Now I plan to take transmission and install it first to engine outside, then put engine back. But I found it difficult to get to all the nuts because little space plus the ones on top are unreachable. Any advise?

[@johnbroomhead-wq2nf]

I need a video for rear differential w163

[@Don-xj3uo]

You Guys rock! I watched you vid on replacing motor mounts and I was able to do it without any problems. Question - I replaced all 3 mounts (2 engine and 1 trans) and I still get vibration with the drive train. Do you think the transfer case needs to be replace? Or is it something else?

[@johnh2937]

Check the rubber drivetrain couplings.

[@Bugby67]

You don’t reply back much world mechanics

[@sixtocroes2694]

Hi, is it possible to drive the mercedes ML350/2003/2004 without the front propeller,?

[@highlightedcomment]

I read these 163 98-2005 need t-case replacement every 60k. Apparently the actual sprocket the chain connects to wears & they slip under max power... my question us will a 99 ml t-case or a 98 & the 2001-2005 ml 320 t-cases all fit in a 2000 model ? The abundance of non running ML's makes buying the complete car for $500 the answer since Mercedes doesn't seem to make these anymore... mine is missing the low range switch in the dash as well as whatever goes in the switch location.

[@Mitutumuch]

[@saltorido2761]

[@avonspence8066]

[@feridoonaslani]

[@gabrielfrias3980]

Hello, have a 2004 mercedes ml350 , what were the signs that the transfer case was bad? Im thinking mine is no good but not sure?

[@bekabeka71]

Too jerky

[@saltorido2761]

How about how to remove the transmission? is there a video? and is it best to take out transfer case first?

[@bernardleatmon121]

How long was the total job??

[@TheDjibounga]

Nice video guys, planning on replacing the transfer case of 2006 ML 350 4matic. Is it much different?

[@bekabeka71]

Did you change it lol?

[@jizzstar2251]

Replace subframe after wreck?

[@WorldMechanics]

+Bryon Espinosa depends on the wreck and if it was impacted. We replaced control arm and steering knuckle in the past after we purchased a wrecked w163

[@b_wilk98]

World Mechanics I have a 2000 Mercedes ML430 and my ML grinds under acceleration at very low speeds. Could this be my issue? Only does it when low range is engaged.

[@vasyvasy7396]
