Hi All,
I'm going to attempt to change the spark plugs on my w202 C280.
I've read a number of threads, watch some utube videos and studied WIS.
I had a quick look today and pulled of the leads to the two easiest plugs (near side - removed washer bottle to gain access.).
A couple of...
Just stripped manifold off to get heater plugs out and the ones I got off ebay are half the size of the one I got out the car. All places shut now till Tuesday...Just my luck:doh:
my friend has a 129 sl. it has the 3.2 v6 24v engine and it has 12 plugs!!
it also had the big brakes on it so must be a special one of some sort?

Saw this on another forum, it's a great link to a site which explains how to check the glow plug relay and glow plugs.
