Mercedes Classe M - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe M W163 - Years 1997-2005
Part: Engine
Operation: Crankshaft position sensor

If problems arise when starting the engine, especially when the engine is hot, one of the possible causes could be attributed to the crankshaft position sensor: not reading the position correctly generates a phase shift in the injection sequence which does not allow starting. This sensor is located at the rear of the engine, roughly under the brake oil reservoir; disconnect the socket, unscrew the torx fixing screw, extract it from its seat and replace it with the new one, housing it correctly and tightening the fixing screw; reconnect the plug and check starting.
