Mercedes W212 | How To Replace Engine Fuel Filter

[@Huggybear101]

My Mercedes dealership in Maryland quoted me $817.00 to do this job. Not kidding. Thank you for the wonderful video!!

[@MB212]

That’s to crazy!!! Filter only about 80$ and is quite an easy work! But I guess you have the E350? Right that’s some more work but not to crazy!

[@RealROI]

Unbelievable

[@parmsingh9859]

Well done again, always wait for the notifications of your new videos. Attention to detail with the part numbers is amazing.

[@MB212]

Thanks it glad me your still liking my content 👌

[@liammystery5019]

Hey MB212 i habe that peskie fuel filter housing coolant leak which is quite a common problem could you maybe do a video on replacing the fuel filter housing? Or have you got any info on how to change it step by step?

[@DjComets]

Great from Germany and give you respect for this work

[@mirlind9114]

Ja man hat er echt gut gemacht und gezeigt

[@DjComets]

@@mirlind9114 ich mag seine Videos sehr

[@averagedev7768]

Here we go 2nd fuel filter in a row on my car and yet srill i am reusing the clamps hehe. So far no leaks

[@amirkw2939]

Thanks for your video, it was very informative, doesn't it need to be aired when you change the diesel filter??

[@crazypict]

The hose clamps seem to be a bit hard to get hold of. What do you say? Can the hose clamps be refitted to the new filter? Or should you always mount new hose clamps on the filter? Is it possible to use regular hose clamps? Your videos with the part numbers shown in the video are brilliant!

[@MB212]

They are bit tricky especially when not have the right tool. Google this part-nr 171589003700 that’s the mb recommend tool for the CLICK clamp. I usually reuse the old clamps but mb recommend to replace them always and not use any other clamp types.

[@crazypict]

@@MB212 Thanks for the answer!

[@giggergigger1]

Can you tell me what the hose on the electrical plug on top of the fuel filter does , you left it blanked off on this one , what is it supposed to do on this filter?

[@MB212]

The hose is there to remove air from the diesel filter.

[@gvidaspatupa6556]

Hi i have a e250 cdi amg my service is due and am wondering when the fuel filter is changed do I need to pump the fuel through as I owned a volvo v40 before and it had to be done as the car would not start I used break cleaner in to the turbo to kick start the car. Am wondering if thats the same for my mercedes-benz

[@balkanerror7511]

Hi! What's the serial number for hoses of that filter?

[@fkykas]

Hey, nice tutorial. Maybe you know and will do a video about how to check/repair or tighten front windshield wiper linkage because mine is slightly loose and touches the plastic on the passenger side when it is in down position.

[@dafunk420]

u just lift the plastic cover on the wiper arm and undo the single nut

[@NemanjaGuitar]

I found a leak around it, under it. Did you have a leak too? I will attempt to replace it asap. Thanks in advance!

[@muhammedklnc4605]

Every time best video. I hope you have millions of followers.👏👑🇸🇪

[@marv1490]

Hi, should you do this on a empty tank or can I do it with half a tank of diesel which is in my car right now. Thanks

[@giggergigger1]

Should you not bleed the air out of the suction line before starting engine?

[@MB212]

No only use the ignition before start according to mb document!

[@lukecarter8733]

hi mate, are both clamps a different size?

[@jazzonismo802]

Can i use regular hose clamps?

[@paulstefan357]

About what mileage you change the filter...MB recomand after 75000 km...i heard well?????

[@agondokusumo-111]

Was the w212 not equipped with adblue because I didn't see it beside the diesel filling hole?

[@MB212]

This did not had the adBlue, usually 2015 and never here in Sweden. But filling is in the trunk and last about 1 year of normal driving.

[@MB212]

Surprisingly this was the easiest service thing I have done so far on this car. Read description for more information ⤴️

[@ceto18]

Tjenare. Du verkar kunna hitta det mesta på de bilarna och motorerna. Jag behöver byta ventilkåpepakningen men dilemman är ju lufta ur bränslesystemet efteråt. Så tänkte fråga dig om du känner till nått sätt man kan göra det själv eller stämmer det som hedin bil säger att man måste ha dator till detta ? Tackar :) !!

[@fr4yaa533]

Is it possible to reuse the hose clamps, if you use the CLIC-R & CLIC Collar Hose Clip Pliers to remove them? I am trying later today and ordered some pliers for six pounds sterling.

[@MB212]

Yess you probably don’t have to worry I even reused these hose clamps and I did not have the right tools 🙈 But according to Mercedes manual they should be replaced that’s why I added it to the video. Probably because they not want to risk they start getting bad.

[@jonhuynh8695]

My Fuel filter are okay...problem are the hoses is leak....what part number...

[@frankjohnston4307]

Brilliant video.. um.. the car has an open bonnet indicator (!?) Many thoughts… one of them was “does my ‘19 A250 also have one?”. Just checked and no it does not. Fascinating

[@K04L44]

On my w212 e350, unfortunately the fuel filter is not as easy as this to replace or I would have done it by now! Currently sat on shelf in the garage staring at me to do it!

[@MB212]

I got you checked the procedure and is not as straightforward as this engine. Sometimes is good with the small engine at least when it comes to service/repairs ☺️

[@PhantomOfTheArcticOcean]

Can air get into the fuel system after the change? If so, how can I bleed it? I have an E350 CDI C207.

[@MB212]

Yess it can, you bleed it with the ignition on for a few seconds before Start. No manual bleeding need to be done as with older cars.

[@mygoalcrash8077]

@@MB212 how offten change filter?

[@MB212]

Change it at 4 years interval.

[@BionicRusty]

Thank you so much for sharing. 🙏 Very informative.

[@metralha__09]

Nice work bro ..!! Thanks for sharing

[@kuldipsingh8899]

How much is the filter

[@ZakiGarage]

Wish my M272 engine had a similar easy changeable filter. Its part of the fuel pump and has to be changed as a whole assembly 😢

[@MB212]

Sounds like good amount of work 😳 But how often is change needed for that engine?

[@ZakiGarage]

@@MB212 I don't have my car's service schedule unfortunately so I'm not sure. Resources online say to change it every 90k km but from what I understood from the dealership to change it when the fuel pump fails since they don't sell the filter separately, the filter comes in one unit with the fuel pump and its 💰💰💰.

[@BMWI-gk9wh]

Even better and more simple. Under the seat

[@cpradeepsify]

Thank you for the great video. Is it possible to use the same size hose clips or do they have to be two different sizes? When I called Mercedes they said I can use 2 x A0069971890, is this right?

[@MB212]

For this engine it should be different size. Do you have same type of engine?

[@A4nKar]

Great Video!!! Even though mine is gas engine but I still enjoyed your video.

Oh yes E220 or 250 adding this vid into collection

This filter for diesel engine I think not for gasoline.

[@pikley8061]

Well that was fast

[@MB212]

It was almost that fast as in the video ☺️ This was way easier then expected. I try figure out the best length for the videos because when checking stats this short videos doing the best. But not really happy with this one was little to fast now when I checking back.

[@carstensvendsen1425]

@@MB212 Thanks for the video - almost as fast as the change itself. The system fills automatically the fuel filter with ignition on. SOOOO EASY to do :)

[@launchbenz2242]

This procedure isn't 100% correct. Before connecting the smaller fuel line,you should fill the filter with diesel using a vaccum pump. That will reduce the amount of air left into the fuel system. Too much air can cause damage to high pressure fuel pump. Shaving metals from pump will damage the injectors. High pressure fuel pump shouldn't run dry at all.

[@MB212]

The filter is automatically filled when you use the ignition, and also the air is pumped out! This is done according to mb documents. I guess you refer to older cars.

[@TopG80]

Where's the damn egr. Lol
