Thanks for the wisdom. Bellend.

Wow, I guess fix it as it came from the factory is the recommendation. Perhaps just saying that in a non judgemental arrogant **** kind of way would have sufficed. **** you and your forum you ***** 🖕.

Ok, pretty much every post I've read regarding this recommends swirl flap delete. So, I've found this INTAKE INLET MANIFOLD BLANKING SWIRL FLAPS KIT for MERCEDES W163 ML 270 2.7 CDI | eBay Which looks like a straight swap. Anyone done this ?. I just want to sort the oil leak and if replacing...

Ok thanks. Would swirl flap removal compromise the egr or not have any effect ?. Cheers.

Would this work ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/INTAKE-INLET-MANIFOLD-BLANKING-SWIRL-FLAPS-KIT-SET-MERCEDES-W163-ML-270-2-7-CDI-/274106919916?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 And would removing the egr have to be done too ?. If so, does it still have to be...

Hi. This is my 2nd w163 but my first diesel for many years. I've noticed the odd drip of black oil on my drive and upon inspection, it looks like the block is covered all on the right side (when looking under the bonnet). I've read about the intake manifold with worn flaps causing this, and...

Hi again. Firstly, thanks for all the sound advice I've had so far on a few issues, much appreciated. I've noticed that my E240 w210 estate judders when slowly reversing and foot is on brake pedal. Also, the idle seems low, around 500 rpm and the needle moves constantly like its not at a...

Will do. Only going by the advert when I bought it and being a bmw man for 20+ years, I'm not massively familiar with all things merc. Cheers 🤙

. Thanks, found it under glove box under a panel like you said for rotary dials. Cheers.

I've looked online extensively but to no avail.

Hi. Excuse me if I'm being daft but I cant find the pollen filter. Is it in the engine bay or would it be elsewhere like inside the glove compartment (bmw e36) ?. Its a 2002 E240 v6 petrol. Thanks.

thanks everyone.

What is a pse pump please ?

Wow, Is that even a thing with these cars ?

Forgive the barrage of posts, I'm getting used to the merc ways. E240, 2002 model. There seems to be a noise coming from the rear when idling, sounds a bit whiny and its very audible. Could this be the intank fuel pump ?, or are there other things that could make that noise there ?. I guess it...

Cheers pal.

Thank you 😊

Hi. Just bought this car and didn't really notice it on the test drive. The car was a real bargain so I'm not too worried. It seems to have a slight lumpy idle where the whole car vibrates a little. The rev counter needle moves slightly up and down too. I never had this with my old e39 bmw, that...

Greetings from Norwich. Just swapped back to merc, having just had a bmw e39 touring. This is my 2nd merc, having owned an old ml500 previously, which was a beast. My e240, not so much but I love it, so far, and it was very cheap. Needs some minor cosmetics but the interior is mint. Got a small...

Hello. I'm possibly swapping over from bmw world. I've had a merc before, a ml500 so I am reasonably familiar with mercs of that era so looking forward to having a merc once again. I'm looking at a e240 estate. Its in fab condition with full history and low miles. I Currently drive a BMW e39...
