@@HMC_LTD changing a water pump is not rocket science. Mercedes are hoping you won't have any security torx bits and have to take your car to one of their stealerships

That plastic merc impeller looked cheap the replacement was the business lucky for him u were there jimmy

[@hughmarcus1]

I’m wondering if that owner ever heard of maintenance. It’s obvious from the mess around that water pump, that engine has been losing coolant for months 😬

[@JohnJohn-ij5rj]

You never know if you leave it long enough it might fix itself 🤣

[@HaggisMuncher-69-420]

Just top it up with tap water. Problem solved.

[@AV-sm5ir]

These Waterpumps are just poor quality/design. First pumps on the 651 diesel engine failed around 40-50K Km's. Some went for 150K +. They eventually replaced them with aluminum one's like the 651 in Vito's or sprinters.

[@fintonking7525]

Mercedes and BMW used to be at the top in Engineering and quality designs, but all the other car Companies have now caught up -- except, of course, the Russian ones. Ladas are still referred to as skips on wheels.

[@liamcinq]

A plethora of warning lights on that not related to the coolant issue.

[@billyboy3053]

That is definitely one carful owner 😅😂😂😂

Hos long does it take to replace a water pump on this car?

I have a questions, what do you think if the halfords dpf flush.

[@StelioKontos-wk9km]

Halfords anything is pish

[@Theorangeman.]

Halfords 😂

[@saadselkent367]

OK went to them today for it, they said they can't do it on my car as the filter is blocked due to a sensor so it's better to get that fixed. Full refund as well

No thanks, what a heap of shit this German car is, if people can't afford the repairs to these cars then they shouldn't own own one, get an Insignia or Mondeo or another rep mobile.

[@kass9722]

old video, is my guess

[@opelmantamechanic8438]

Get some Red rubber grease , it doesn't attack rubber like normal grease does over time.👍

[@JayGee6996]

Ideal for brake systems as it doesn’t affect brake fluid. Silicone grease is ideal for most other applications such as this

[@thindo]

A bit of KSeal and off to the. market... Oh maybe he was the recipient of the KSeal job

[@RikAindow]

Oh dear. Looks like a cheap water pump was used. Nice to know it's an easy job on that engine.

pop pop - bang bang, good night x

[@HMC_LTD]

It won't cool if the cap is off And probably never topit up Have to say test it again with a with rad cap on They are very strong engines but you need the rad cap in to monitor the car trying to bleed it running won't work Give it another go

[@W_F_M_UK]

Was thinking same thing

[@RogerM88]

Owning a Mercedes but thinking it can deal with lack of maintenance as a Corolla...yikes. No wonder some of these people fall for the "maintenance free" false advertising for BEVs.

Jimmy Answer the phone please Bruv . I'm stuck on the M.1 near milton Keynes. I need my DPF cleaning.

I'm not sure if you are serious but he said in a recent video he does not answer the phone any more as dumb asses keep ringing him up looking for remote DPF cleaning help.
