sump

When my MY 2013 C180 Estate went in for the scheduled ATF change recently, the garage added £46 to the bill for a new oil pan. They showed me the old one which the mechanic had cleaned up to reveal an area of corrosion on the side which had spread downwards to surround and damage to drain plug...

Hello all, I've just bought a 2002 E220 cdi Estate Diesel. I want to change the oil, but haven't succeeded in getting the front of the car up on the ramps yet as the front lower body panel fouls on the ramps before the front wheels reach them. No doubt I'll figure out a way of getting the front...

Hi Has anyone on here done there own oil and oil filter change on a e55k? I've been reading up and it says there are 2x drain plugs? Does it matter which one gets drain 1st? sorry if its a stupid question, just thought it was worth a ask:D

Firstly Thanks to Acid for supplying mine, cheers mate. Took the car to PCS this morning for Olly to fit it. Some pictures Fitted! Apart from looking good, you'll probably won't notice any difference but can't do any harm - fresh oil/filter. This Weistec sump makes the MB one look a bit...

Hi I did a search and couldn't see an answer. Attempting to change my tranmission fluid, filter, pilot bushing. I managed to loosen the sump cover bolts so they are good to go - they were easy. But the T30 TORX sump plug is rock solid. Tried an extension on TORX tool socket, no joy...

Hi all, My 2003 E220 CDi S211 Estate had for the last 6 months a small leak from the front vertical side of the Engine OIL SUMP. The sump had gone porous from the FRONT (not far from where its screwed into engine) and oil would seep out through the metal on to the anti roll bar and then to...

Received a telephone call within half an hour to tell me the technician had put it on the ramp and heard a noise from the bottom of the engine. Said the plastic sump was vibrating and they needed to dismantle to...

I have a 1989 W124 200.If the oil level is more than 10mm above the minimum mark on the dipstick the car blows blue smoke on acceleration and decelleration. Presumably oil from the sump is being forced viathe sump breather into the carb air intake. Does anyone know why??

Does anyone know where I can buy a sump plug washer for C180 W202? Eurocarparts don't stock them and the ones on Ebay are over £5 which seems a bit expensive.
