Part: Timing belt
Operation: Guide to replacing the timing chain on the Mercedes E-Class.

Today's guide will illustrate the main instructions useful for replacing the timing chain of the Mercedes E-Class; the manufacturer recommends replacing the timing chain every 220,000 kilometers. To access the timing chain, it is necessary to remove the engine block, disconnect the gearbox, and disassemble the engine support; then we remove the valve cover and the distribution housing, gaining access to the chain. We replace the distribution kit with the original one, ensuring durability and reliability over time.

First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
