weight

Hi all I am trying to find out the weight of a 5.6 litre (Or any M117) engine. I've found one place which say it is roughly 300 kilos but would like that backed up or possibly anyones experience. The one sat in my garage is simply heavy, but I have no way of measuring it. Cheers. Dave!

I have just requested and received a brochure for the ZO6 and the C6 coupe and convertible as i am looking to probably replace my car. Surprised to see that the C6 convertible is lighter than the coupe by 1 kg. I thought that most convertibles were heavier due to the rigidity loss in chopping...

Can anybody tell me what the max towing weight for a braked trailer on a E300 TD estate (1999) please, I can't find my handbook.

I've noticed that no tyre manufacturers seem to publish the weight of their tyres. Also the same for manufacturers of alloy wheels. Given that unsprung mass has an affect on handling and efficiency, I'm surprised these figures aren't available and used by those seeking a comparison. Is it...

Ok this is part two of thread below but I believe it warrants its own space. In the search for a garage that could 4 wheel align etc, I rand my local Kwik-Fit knowing that they couldnt do it but may know of a garage that could. After the normal sales blurb of we do this and we do that they...

I had one of my original steels fitted temporarily during an alloy refurb and was surprised to notice that the alloy weighed more than the steel ! Bathroom scales confirm that the 15" steel plus tyre was 15.5 kg and the 16" alloy plus tyre 18 kg. That sounds like a 10kg increase in unsprung...

Hi, I heard that around yr2000/1 the seats on a V-class were lightend. I have a 2000 X, how can I tell if they are the light weight version. Tx Amolak

As my car is 1999 model, it came with a normal spare 17" AMG alloy wheel in the boot, same as the ones on the car itself. Although its an alloy wheel, its still quiet heavy actually, not to mention it occupies large space under the boot mat. However, i have been reading on some websites...
