OM606 W124 clutch upgrade, 0-60 fail and dyno test

[@jonathanpainter4452]

Yes!! A new video drop. The Shorts are good but it's better to have the full video🎉

[@Akya2120]

I think the "Sachs stuff is crap" mentality, comes from folks putting a standard Sachs clutch between a turned up truck engine and 7,000lb+ of vehicle. I know with the ZF-5 behind my 7.3 powerstroke most folks overfill them by about a quart to help with gear roll over noise. I'd imagine it's difficult to do that with a car trans.

[@peterjohn3180]

I agree, I've found Sachs to be the best "standard" clutch plate.... but this could mean the alternatives were even worse......plus we worship this dpuk man as a god..... rather my gf does...... handsome 😈! Lol

Happy New Year 2024 Excellent to see a video from you mate ! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇩🇪 🇺🇸

I have been looking at that ebay ad every other day for a while now, but ideally I'm looking an older model with an om606 and touch more hp. Great video as always

[@mitkotashev2984]

"I don't know the code on this box cause I'm not a sad wanker" 😂 Exactly the reason why I carefully watch every video from beginning to end

[@FORDLYFAOTEAROA]

No fluffing around here, good stuff man. Normally on KZbin you have to drag this kind of stuff out for two or three episodes and then push your merchandise repeatedly 🤣

[@Teckenrode-1960]

Awesome Cant wait to order the jeep adapter, the JEEP (nv3550) is the same mounting as ax15. Ax15 is basically the 603 and the nv3550 is the 606.

Cracking video, I'd love to own that W124! 👌

happy new year! Can you make more videos this year? there is so little om606 content on here!

[@HectorM777]

Beautiful machine. Timeless and robust.

[@jhondo7614]

Would like to see OM 606 built with( speed of air) pistons and the results of how much gains you get

[@meirionrhys3786]

A sprung friction plate is common on later Mercedes even with the dual mass flywheel, particularly sprinters

[@DinoPasic]

I think you should try dual fuel combination, diesel plus LPG, 40+60%. It is very popular in truck's because engine is cleaner and LPG helps diesel to burn more efficient, that means you are using 100% of your fuel and not 70% like it is usually normal. Of course you get more torque and horse power also.

[@gogutzy]

running all terrain tires and wondering why the wheels spin :D

[@tired365]

Very informative video and a beautiful car, thank you.

[@djmusk6015]

Mercedes have never been great at a manual trans. They really are the kings of the auto box.

[@Jack-qn4vt]

Not even, old ones were slugs

[@professorjamesmoriarty5191]

The 716 6 speeds are lovely things, anything older was crap.

[@AdmissionGaming]

Man i wish we got the om606 in australia. Nothing cooler than a turbo mechanical diesel imo.

[@jasonbirch1182]

Do you have any experience with the baldur dsl1 controller for an EDC pump? I love the idea of cruise control in my 606 swapped 6 speed 350sdl, plus egt safteys and such. It's for towing my drift car and some light hooning fun.

[@jaybird836]

It's the holding force that's is important in combination of clutch material. Yes you will get a hard pedal but a firm grasp NO slip or burn. I have 500lb on my fj cruiser much better over stock in performance and towing

[@timothyschulz4730]

I notice you run extremely small turbine housings on the turbo Can you make a video addressing this.

[@patrickobermann6657]

Very nice build for daily drive. What kind of turbo is in use?

[@derJackistweg]

11:24 Can I invide you to German Autobahn constructions? I was once in 3km construction on A45 with a R55 JCW Mini with it´s standard fault (a camshaft issue). That results in "keeping the RPM high enough to not let the engine stall otherwise it will restart in limpmode". = 2h nonstop on the clutch pedal, on-off

Got a business idea. Built 20 Mercedes C111 replicas with your OM 606 drivetrain. This car of the 70's still has legendary status . The problem would be to get the permission from Mercedes Benz. And first you'd have to build a proof of concept.

Can u fit that sachs pressure plate to that budget kit flywheel? Is it bolt on or do you need some modifications

[@josephhands196]

Can anyone help me as their is not much info on the tinterweb but did the w124 come standard with a turbo om606 if so how do I know what to look for as I much prefer the w124 shape to the later model and w124 wagons seem more readily available, looking to turn it into a superturbo diesel, what model had the om606 turbo as I've read that na turbo conversion is a pain

[@AlienLivesMatter]

With the amount of available torque why not fit the original 4speed autobox+converter? Upsize the rear differential ratio to suit

[@jvinsnes]

Manual is much more fun and involving
