Mercedes Classe E - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe E W212 - Years 2009-2016
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How do you replace the timing chain of the Mercedes C-Class?

In order to replace the timing chain of the Mercedes C-Class, it is convenient to completely remove the engine from its housing compartment: once the engine has been extracted, it will be possible to detach the front plastic cover of the engine block, so that the screws fixing the tensioner can be loosened; the tension of the chain will then be reduced and it will be possible to remove it from the corresponding sprockets. In this way, the new chain can be inserted, covering everything with panels and verifying that everything functions correctly.
