[@billm4212]

Thank you for taking the time to make the video. It’s all great information !

[@os3752]

Great video ! I have a 95 e300 diesel sedan, will be doing this soon.

Glad I found your channel! I just replaced my M104 engine due to someone putting bolts in the engine. My diff and transmission are leaking.

Thanks for showing how to change the fluid. Certainly people will argue what type of fluid to use. Sticking with non-synthetic myself. Know the weight, but still deciding what brand.

[@micheldriessen9348]

Nice video again. Really useful. Thanks👍

[@julienmeyer1029]

Thank you for this vidéo I just planned to do that maintenance by myself.

Good to see you point out that the filler plug needs to be removed first. I've known of a number of people who got burned by draining the oil and then being unable to get the filler plug out. Oops!

[@burnrubber3361]

Yep Me too!

[@sjulier]

Excellent video.

[@douglasbrueckner2050]

Hi ! What's the tightening torque? Thanks for your video ;)

[@safrihidayat3074]

thanks brother

[@bunnythekid]

Good video as always

[@alanOHALAN]

I think the magnetic plugs are after market, not factory.

[@Mr.Humphrey60]

Right on [thank you sir]

[@axios76]

Torque?

Thank you for the video. My 1995 W124 E300 diesel SE has ASD (and it actually works, flashes " ! "). Looking into what oil to use. 75W-90 Valvoline Synthetic is readily available here (Long Island) and says for "limited slip" use. A 75W should flow better in the winter, but be no thinner than a 90 in summer. What do you suggest?

[@RepairRenovateRenew]

75w-90 will work according to many forum posts on the net

[@RepairRenovateRenew]

This is not a limited slip however

[@Hubjeep]

Thank you! What's the "best" forum for diesel W124?

[@RepairRenovateRenew]

peachparts.com/shopforum

[@RepairRenovateRenew]

Best way to nagivate it is to Google search peach parts and what info you need

Hey Great Video & Information! Can ATF oil be used as a Differential oil?

[@68Repair]

ATF is very thin for the Differential and wouldn't work on this Part. You only can use ATF for the Gearbox

Hi. Great video. How often should I change w124 e320 coupe differential oil? An what's the best original diff oil to replace? Thanks

[@simeonsimeonov4776]

Liqui molly every two years is fine

[@julienmeyer1029]

Maintenance Book says every 60000km

[@muhammeteroglu8100]

Hey I have a question, my w124 is making a whining sound from the back, which keeps building up when I go faster. My local garage said it was the diff and so he said that he replaced the old one, but I still hear the whining noise. I cannot enjoy the ride. Can someone help me

[@mojo888x]

how do you overfill a diff?

[@MichaelBrown-wx6zq]

There is no crush washer or O-ring that needs to be replaced?

[@Leo555ZZZ]

No ...
