Mercedes W211 Cooling System Overhaul Part 2

[@Michael.Chapman]

Great to see your W211 achieve 200K+ miles! For ten years I've owned a black 2005 E350 AG, now with 69K miles. It's a joy to own. I love your attention to factory specs, doing it right... eg: the correct coolant mix using distilled water as diluent :-)

Just did the job on my 06 CDI. Great video from parts, torque values, and routing of serpentine belt. Outstanding!

[@Hristo1928]

This was very helpful. Please make a video about the EGR valve cleaning or replacement of the E320 CDI

[@RobertSmith-di5ll]

I'm a fan of your detail

[@aleksandragendera8291]

Couldn`t find anything about E320CDI waterpump change, and foud your video! Thanks a lot! You saved planty of my time :)

[@rsrcisco8673]

HI, just asking , no need any silicone sealant for water pump? I have to change for my 220 cdi and skf pump have just one aluminium gasket (like yours)

[@percyanderson3474]

Very good

[@PARDS2]

DR---BEAUTIFUL EXACTING JOB AS USUAL FOR YOU. SUPERB DETAIL!!!!! DID YOU NOTICE THE TOP BOLT ON THE THERMOSTAT BEING LONGER THAN THE OTHER 2?? ALSO, NOTICED A STRIPE OF BLUE LOCTITE ON MOST OF THOSE BOLTS, DID YOU REDO THE TEMP LOCTITE?? DOES "WIS" RECOMMEND THAT? THX AGAIN!!

[@TedMartin1]

After filling up with antifreeze have you got to bleed the system? If yes how? thanks for a tremendous informative lesson.

[@canekotevski660]

Car D. Ologist 7.7 litres Antifreeze + 7.7 litres distilled water? Whole system 15.4 litres fluid? Thank you for this great video

[@farerse]

Good video , how are the hoses connected to the radiator? Looks like it twists and seals. I have not seen that connection type before.

[@mb.warehouse_find4221]

why didn't you tapped it before installing? just an observation...very detailed thumbs up

[@jadesluv]

I bought a Borg Warner thermostat, neither of the two holes were tapped, the screws are not thread cutting screws, I wonder how may people don’t tap the holes and damage the housing. The bracket screws are the same length as the thermostat so I torqued those to slightly more 10Nm nearly as the thermostat @9Nm and its easier to tap with the thermostat unmounted.

[@lepadatupetrica8487]

What is the temperature on your thermostat? 92 or 87? Is duo heater valve can block the coolant and increase coolant pressure and lose coolant on expansion tank? Thank you

[@pfoxhound]

Did you check coolant hoses for EGR?

[@ruhsatigoek1632]

Good video super 👍

[@mohdnasirsalleh5056]

good job Doc...me (Malaysia)

[@BikerBloke600]

Great videos, will need to do this myself soon. How do you get the WIS System, do you have to purchase it?

[@card.ologist4570]

Yes. Usually can be found on ebay -- a few disks to load onto a computer. Really helps.

[@BikerBloke600]

Must have a look as it would be invaluable. Thanks. Keep up the good work. 👍

[@1995RangeRover]

Love your vids!!!

[@card.ologist4570]

Thanks!

[@geojbig]

Subscribed and find your vlog so valuable, Thankyou! I have a 2005 cdi, where did you get the high mileage badge?

[@nimakianipour8831]

how do you burp the cooling system?

[@farerse]

remove the coolant lid and run the Engine to operating temp

[@hifibloke]

Idler pulley 35Nm

[@TheDomin8rr]

Very nicely done! I'm just about to reach 240k miles on my '05 W211 CDI & it is a Florida car too. If you're curious as to what might be in store maintenance-wise in next 40k miles, I have documented everything that I've had to replace over that time @ fuelly.com... My handle there is 'PSDCamperVan' Keep the DIY's coming, excellent!

[@card.ologist4570]

Thanks. I'll check it out.
