Mercedes e270 w211 Intake manifold replacement

[@johnjo699]

Has to be one of the best engine videos on KZbin, no wasted talking, plain and easy to see what to do. Great. Thanks.

[@workshopmg4260]

Thank you, that's exactly what I was aiming for.

[@leonvdm]

well done!! i did this on my ml 270cdi 3 years ago. removal of common rail and thermostat wasnt needed on my ml 270 cdi. also i didnt need to do any work from under the car. (so no starter motor removal needed) it was a pain to get to all intake manifold bolts though

[@Марк.Фетнов]

so, basically they start with the inlet manifold then build the rest of the car around it :( Thanks for the video though!

[@AlexAndreiZAR]

Great video! I did it myself on my w203 on 2.2 cdi engine. Hell of a job from start to finish. I hate it, hope not to need to do it again.

[@mikb7360]

If you delete the EGR, you will not have this problem anymore. With EGR, you have to clean/change the Manifold every 100'000. I had error message in my car from DPF sensor, just drove with the EGR disconnected for a long travel, as result I completely cleaned Manifold and Exhaust System. Now the car is like reborn.

[@manbiteslife3110]

You think it cleans just by removing egr?

[@dorijanderezanin2264]

You wont clean anything this way

[@nunomnovo]

Thank you! Its more or less to 220CDI. Thank you for the help.

[@workshopmg4260]

No problem, I'm glad I could help.

[@mikejuelg1290]

Great job with restricted access to many bolts. Similar process on ML270 but manifold has additional rail for butterfly valves driven by electric motor. Valves often fail allowing boost to escape intake and lose power. EGR shunt can prevent soot build up.

[@leonvdm]

i did this with my ML and it is running great ever since !!

[@riccardostefani1966]

i'm deciding buying between a used s210, 300td I6 or 270cdi... I5. and i like to do all the work i can myself... like egr erase and intake cleaning... after this brilliant video, i think i will buy a 300td... way too time-consuming this modern om646

[@agatagebura6824]

Very useful! I will save so much on garage. Thank you.

HI at 16:54 you wrote I need to disconect 4 plugs. Please where excatly is point 3. above the transmission and point 4. under the transmission. Thank you

[@christosmavridis356]

Hallo , I have the same problem with my W211 Cdi 220. I wanted to start and I see that I can not let the cooling water out , because the plastic screw ist broken.. So I wanted to ask could i do this work without letting the cooling water out ? ok much water would fall down but ok the think is could I do all the work wat you describe in the video than . ? Thanks Christos

[@alecs18judo]

Hi,very good video, I managed to disassemble the intake manifold on a w211 641.961 E220 engine. Now I want to put the intake manifold back. Do you know at what torque pressure the screws should be tightened? I saw you use a torque wrench. And what are the screws should be tightened only with torque wrench. Thank you.

[@Tundrikas]

Was this manifold removed before? I find Air flaps and inlet port shutoff motor missing.

[@workshopmg4260]

It was, I have removed it again just to make the movie and also to check if the blanks were still there.

[@diecastdoktor9191]

If I'm not mistaken but the air flaps and inlet port shutoff motor are North America Specific and this one looks to be European. I'm about to tackle my North American CDI Intake

[@pfoxhound]

Pretty intensive job.

[@neilburns6118]

Excellent excellent video. But ditch the music,....Please?!!! I have the C220 CDI Classic SE, S203.208 (Estate), OM646.963 Engine and after a major turbo failure and Black Death on one injector have had to remove, clean and replace loads. Was just about to refit the replaced hydraulic pump when I noticed my inlet manifold was covered in soggy oil and carbon. Would i be correct in thinking i need to remove it and clean it out with new gaskets?

[@bens.1723]

Only wow nice job in the street 👍

[@hp5474]

Good job and thanks for sharing

[@fierakuitali9313]

Are ok this chines inlet mainfds? Has plastic flaps

[@ssabc762]

Hi could you please advise how to pull out top wire (square Plug) from the transmission? Do I need any special tool? Thanks

[@workshopmg4260]

Hello, you don't need a special tool. From what I remember, I have unplugged it from underneath the car, and it was a really tight squeeze to get to it.

[@ssabc762]

@@workshopmg4260 Thanks I managed to unplug it.

[@EndritVj]

If the intake manifold is damaged, apart from power loss, should the idle be erratic? In my case I have loss of power, seems like the turbo do not engage, but the idle is ok.

[@workshopmg4260]

It could be a limp mode, if the intake receives wrong pressure reading, it will put your car in a safe mode. Idle should be ok, as boost pressure is only generated when you put your foot down.

[@eduardalinpopa2732]

Hello, nice video, good info, tried now on my c220 cdi to remove, engine starter for replacement, and also intake manifold. I removed almost everything, but i still have one nut on the intake but its imposible. I dont know how to do it. Any advice?! Also i removed the oil dipstick from under the car and also from top, but i doesn.t have space to come out !! Thanks in advance

[@workshopmg4260]

Thank you. Your dipstick should come out and give you access to one screw. It might be attached to a bracket in the middle. I'm not sure what to suggest, just be patient, as it is very easy to damaged the head on the bolts. Try using extension, or even a spanner with a torx to get into tigh spaces. Good luck, hope you manage to get it off.

[@eduardalinpopa2732]

@@workshopmg4260 it.s not attached anywhere, it doesnt have space to go thdough the manifold, and yes, i think if i can take this out, maybe i have room for the bolt. But still, it is very difficult, i tried every position, already 2 days working on it.

[@workshopmg4260]

@@eduardalinpopa2732 There must be a way to get it out, on mine I had to spin it + lift at the same time and it find it's way out.

[@eduardalinpopa2732]

@@workshopmg4260 yes, i tried also this method but nothing...or maybe i didn.t try hard enough, because i.m afraid of damaging something.

[@workshopmg4260]

@@eduardalinpopa2732 It is a different engine, maybe there is different method of taking it out, I didn't have to use any pressure on mine. Try searching online on forums, I'm sure some1 have come across it already.

[@neilburns6118]

Oh sorry yes. Nearly forgot. Why did you need to disconnect the starter motor wires under the car? I guess the fuel lines are easier to disconnect under the car than from above?

[@workshopmg4260]

Starter motor wires run through the intake, to remove it u will need to disconnect it. If your arm can fit you can remove fuel lines from above.

[@adrianadi1782]

Good Job 👌👍

[@simonodisho7345]

Hello, I would like to ask you about the item Intake Manifold Control Swirl Covers. Is it possible to remove under the car the Intake Manifold Control Swirl Covers without having to completely expand the item. Because in the video it wasn’t shown and it was removed when you expanded the Intake Manifold. I would be grateful if you would get in touch with me.

[@workshopmg4260]

To remove the swirl flaps, intake manifold will have to come off, as they are assembled from inside. You can remove the motor from underneath the car, that is opening and closing the flaps, making sure the flaps are in open position, remove the arm and blank the holes. (I never tried this but I heard people do it) in my opinion the best way is to remove the intake, disassemble the flaps and permanently blank the holes. That way u are 100% sure the intake is straight through.

[@simonodisho7345]

Thank you for the answer. If I have any further questions, I will refer to you.

[@robertodeniro5109]

Hi). please tell me because of a muffled collector, engine power has fallen dramatically?

[@workshopmg4260]

Hello, If you have added a muffler to your car and it lost its power I think this means the exhaust gasses are not coming out as easy as they should. It could be a wrongly welded muffler or there is a lot of rubbish inside the collector. Also scan your car for error messages, it could also be a sensor.

[@robertodeniro5109]

@@workshopmg4260 but you have a muffled collector? I don’t see any dampers...

[@workshopmg4260]

@@robertodeniro5109 yes I removed mine including a motor. I had to insert a resistor into the motor wires to make it think it is still in use. For me it was similar, no power but I also had an engine management light, after adding the resistor it solved the problem.

[@joesaric1]

@@workshopmg4260 why not just disconecting and take off the arm and let the motor in function ?

What is the result when you blanking the swirl flaps ? better response or what ?

[@danmccarthy6699]

Would the Ml270 be the same process as this ?

[@workshopmg4260]

It would be, but I think it will be a lot easier on a ml, as there is a lot more room around the engine.

[@danmccarthy6699]

Workshop MG Thanks for that.

[@mikejuelg1290]

Dan Mc Carthy slight difference on ML. The transmission dipstick is on the other side but might be like this for left hand drive version. Can also remove the front guard liner for improved access from underneath. From memory plumbing for fuel heater is only tubing running through the manifold.
