Evening all, It's that old chestnut again, started to remove the inlet manifold on my 2003 270cdi and have got to the bit where everything is unbolted on the top side and all the manifold bolts are out, but, there is a couple of fuel lines and two electric wires going down into the lower part of...
The 124 has gone into my Garage to assess work required to Pass The MOT whilst looking at how to remove the Cat by the manifold Downpipes I noticed this
Started her up and Felt and it certainly feels like its leaking there with the manifold heat shield on it was invisible But I removed it to...

Hopefully going to do this next week when I'm a bit better. Want to clean it out as well as the EGR as I'm sure it's never been done. Will do the EGR delete afterwards.
I have read through many threads but cannot find difinitive answers to a few questions.
Is it relatively simple? I am...
Does anyone know any good indies in Manchester who will be willing to do the mod to my existing manifold? Literally take it out, modify then re-install?
My indie won't do it and they want £800 to fit a new one with new motor.
Have booked ml into local indie to get my leaking alternator looked at.
Whilst in I've asked them to check my manifold as the car feels sluggish, kicks out black smoke on acceleration and has oil down the side of the block.
Does anyone know how much I should be paying for a direct replacent...
Hi I am after some advice please. My manifold is leaking and Mercedes are asking over £500 for a replacement part. Does anyone know if the maniflods are repairable or if a pattern part is available please?
hi all
Over the weekend I used Halfords Manifold paint to paint the exhaust manifold as well as the power steering box cover and drivers side engine mount cover.
I was out this morning for a drive and when i returned home i had a look at the engine bay ( hoping to admire my handy work ) and...
I recently cleaned an X Type Diesel Jag 2004, Manifold and EGR.
I used Brake Fluid and a wire brush. Just wondered if there was a thread on here for a w203 c class 2002. Or if anyone has pictures of the procedure?
Is brake fluid ok? or anything else more ' suitable '.

Hello everybody,
I have a w124 230E and I am planning to upgrade its power although it is running perfectly as it should. Many of the members would swap engine or maybe buy a 300E instead. However, I like my 230E and I am looking forward to make some minor performance upgrades that may...
Have noticed recently that my e220 cdi 51 plate is smoking on acceleration and when revving it I can't see the control arm for the manifold flaps moving. I have a few months back had the manifold replaced as the flaps were worn and the control arm had come off the motor but am now worried the...
I've noticed on cold start I get a teeny bit of liquid and air bubbles coming out of one of the manifolds where it joins the engine. Once warm, it stops. The manifolds are in good nick, no corrosion, so I'm thinking, its a tightening or seal issue. It looks like water bubbles and evaporates...
Hi All
If anyone could help it would be really appreciated!
I have a E-class 320 cdi estate with 170k on the clock... I bought it smoky and with the information on this forum went ahead and cleaned the egr - manifold and refitted today.... Took it for a long hard drive to clear any residue...
My own problem now is why is there so much oil in my manifold ? Dirty oily mucky coating in it and a puddle collects in the egr. I have cleaned the crank breather but its seems to be very ineffective at blocking the oil from being sucked out with the gases. If anyone knows of a solution to this ??
Hi All,
I am in the process of removing the inlet manifold from my C220 CDI.

The haynes manual isnt particularly...
