...I liked the videos on replacing spark plugs. Very simple and useful for DIY people who don't want to spend around $1000, for spark plug replacements (for V8 engines) at MB facility. However, it should be recommended to use a torque wrench together with the MB torque chart, this will make a huge difference in terms of engine performance. All spark plugs MUST BE replaced at exactly the same torque specification, avoiding potential engine damage. A good/reliable torque wrench costs about $70.

At what mileage did this M177 have on it when you did the spark plugs? I have about 40k miles and thinking about doing this. Also those spark plugs that you took out were in really bad shape.

Hey man, I’ve gotta replace the coils on mine. I know you sort of skipped over that because they’re in front of the plugs but any tips / tricks with the coil packs?

I always thought that our sparks where made by Bosch, at least in the EU zone. My c63s has Bosch…

No, NGK, if you have Bosch someone must have changed them out. But you can use what ever you want

How did you remove the wiring to get to the back two plugs?
@redbaron24484 жыл бұрын
Probably that is in part 1 of the video believe it's just one or two screws that hold the wire harness just remove it and comes out

Do you know the torque spec?
@redbaron24483 жыл бұрын
There is no torque spec once it's all the way in and tighten you give a quarter-turn just snug. . If you torque spark plugs you risk over-tightening and pistons will hit

redbaron2448 but on the passenger side the tube is hard and literally right on the last bolt and over the coil pack. How did you even manage that?
