Hi All,
Does anyone have any documentation, advice, hints and tips to replace the V poly belt tensioner and idler pulley on a W208 CLK55?
I did have a good search on this forum before posting.
I spent most of the day looking on various sites and youtube and found some great videos, but they mainly seem for the M112 engine and seem to have loads of room in front of the radiator. No videos for CLK55
I did find these two great video's and get the idea of to replace them but when I look at mine I have no room to move and see I need to remove the Viscous Fan and fan shroud to get access.
Has anyone else attempted this job and have any advice?
In the video he says about the three Allen bolts that hold the fan. Are they easy to locate and what size etc.
Basically I need advice removing the fan assembly to get access to the belt, also there is the Radiator water hoses in the way.
Anyhow thanks for listening any help gratefully received
