Any tips of removing crank pulley and do i have to buy a tool to remove it?

Hi. I've not used the forum for a while, but I hope someone can help with this.... I'm trying to replace the crank position sensor in my E320CDi. It is a bit of a s*d to get at if you have big hands! I have eventually got the bolt out, but the sensor will not budge. I've tried by hand and...

My CPS has packed up on the C55 Estate and now trying to change it myself. I have looked at a load of posts, mostly on US forums, have 1/4 inch E8 socket and drive etc but cannot find the thing to change it! Can anyone help with where it is? Sticking my hand right up from underneath on the...

Any body have a redundant stock e55 crank pulley they would sell ? My engineer reckons he can turn it down , machine a new outer ring, press it on and rebalance it . If it works satisfactory he thinks he can offer the service for about £250-£300 in any size up to 200mm .

Hi. I went to use my Saturn and it wouldn't start. The radio and lights all seem to be working fine and the car cranks but just won't turn over. Everything worked fine last night when I used it then.

Hi guys, My 124 has been losing water very quickly recently. Like a 20-30 mile journey. I have now also noticed that the car doesnt crank perfectly. Its misses, then fires. Worrying. Any ideas?

Has anyone heard of the crank pulley letting go. Just had a friends 2012 plate disintegrate.

Good evening gents, Here is the issue: As the cold weather came, the car would not crank anymore. Had this issue last winter, and I did bypass the starter relay, mounting another start button which takes + 12 V from the radioset and gets it directly to the starter's relay. Also, the green...

E55k Crank position sensor ..does anyone know the price and part number please? Many thanks.

morning all, I've been having strange gremlins with the 300TE recently. On cold start, she performs as you'd expect. Drive it for a bit and then try and start her again and it's a no go. Engine will crank but no spark. Leave it for 15 mins (annoying when you are in a tesco car park) and...

Hi all, Just a quick one really.. Dropped a bit of plastic through the gap where the duplex chain is in the timing chain cover and now i cant hand crank the engine... The plastic has siezed it, so need the timing chain cover off asap. To take it off I am aware that I need to take...

Hi all, Wondering if I can get some help on here. Recently, my 140K mile W210 E220 CDI had a diesel spill at the front, so took it to the local trusty mechanic. Originally thinking it might be the injector seals (black death), it came out as the clear plastic diesel pipe (the one that has...

Hello all I have had to buy a crank pulley special tool from the states. I now no longer need it as I have done the job. This tool really made things easy and my crank pulley came off in seconds. It cost £120 but I am open to offers in the region of £100. Its very heavy duty and very well...

my CL63 refuses to start first time. I have to take the key out and lock it and unlock it several times until it eventulally cranks and then it starts and runs no problem. Also sometimes the car gets stuck in a gear, it could be any gear, and it happens particularly if I accellerate quickly. If...

Hello all, I thought I would post a quick note up to see if anyone knows where I can get hold of a crank pulley holder for the job? I dont want to spend £100 on a tool! At the same time I have to do the TCU on the transmission and the the oil seals on the oil cooler. The oil cooler is...

I need a crank position sensor for a facelift V8 W126 or R107

Hello, My E300 randomly "no cranks". All the lights on the dash come on but on the final turn of the key "no crank". It sometimes can take 2-4 goes to get going. We are looking in the direction of the battery, as its old, and the relay. (Yesterday it started perfect every time!). This...

Are the sensors Hall or VR? Both Hall, both VR, Hall/VR or VR/Hall respectively(cam/crank)? Thanks in advance NPK

Hi guys, I made first contact with one of my neighbours this morning. He has a recently acquired and very nice 2000 S430...recently serviced and running fine until this morning. The key inserts, the dash display works, turn the key and there's just a slightest 'clunk' from the starter...

If anyone has a Piston Ring Kit (Part No: A0020304024) or a Crank Bearing Kit (Part No: A6010300540) sitting around gathering dust for a W124 300CE, give us a holler! 6 Rings are required for the Piston Rings & 7 for the Bearing Kit. Cheers in advance, Justin.
