nice, yea I have 2 that I will be doing content and maintenance on, we'll see how it goes. Both are daily drivers.

Nice video, quite on point, appreciate your work👍. Please how do I get these diagrams(or directions) showing the timings and possible torque specs, like the one you pulled up during the checking of the timing?

this will not be a defective camshaft adjuster, the problem on all those camshafts codes are related to a defective camshaft, the wheel sensor of one of intake camshafts spins a littlet bit and set the timing code

I have the 2014 e350 build date 06/13 I get the low dull rattle on start. once I had the sharp rattle for half a second. Just bought the car, so oil and changes unknown. I put Liqui-Moly 10w-40 and ceratec will change in 3k. I don't like engine flush, I have used kerosine years ago, but with variable valve timing...leary. Anyway, I plan to change adjusters, and install check valves if needed. MB dealer said they needed to order coolant tester to test my coolants condition, I can see it is clear amber, looks like mostly water. Info I se says blue or violet. So I'll be doing my own work.

Yea mine had bad rattle but only recently. Was perfect for a few mo after I bought it. Doubt they knew or his anything, they seemed dumb abt the car anyway.

For just replace Cam position sensors, do I need to check the crank degree? Thanks!

im so confused because im looking at wis and its saying to check at 40 past tdc. when i did check it at 40tdc its of. i couldnt under stand what i was seeing. i found your video and when i rotated t 53 tdc the timing marks line up. im scared to use wis now lol. do you have a pic of how the timing marks should look like facing the chain tensioners?

Hi Juan, did you ever figure out which way the marks should face when replacing the secondary tensioners? A lot of conflicting info online. Thank you

Sorry for the late reply. So 40 is where the timing is set and 53 is where you check it. If you check at 40 it will indeed be off. 53 is where you want to confirm the position of the cams in the eye holes on the cam covers. Hope that makes sense. WIS is correct though, the base timing is at 40. I don't have a picture at the moment but they should be in the orientation pointing angles up kind of like it shows in WIS.

I have a 2013 E350. I replaced the left camshaft intake adjuster but in doing so, I spun the camshaft while removing the center bolt. Any tips on resetting the timing on the two left camshafts?

It appears that you may have been 180 out. Did you identify the reluctor plates before removing oil control valve. I'm also assuming you have too much tension in the chain as well even after it's removed

@brenth7774

Similar to me, I ended up setting the base timing when that happened. The process is to remove the cover, and then use the timing tool to hold the cams in place while you are able to move them in place to match the marks up.

I'm having an issue 2013 e 350 may have jump time idk can't spin motor over by hand I was driving it just shut off no noise freaking so call german auto mechanic in mobile al said my starter went out 850 two replace it call back later told my engine is seized then he try to buy it I'm confused

Bonjour et ce matin j'ai une GLK M276 et j'ai pas enlever la batterie avant de demonter les fiches

Man, we are working on this exact issue and it seems no matter what we do we cannot seem to get the timing lines up at 53. Right bank looks good but there is nothing we can do to get the left bank close. One tooth either direction for the intake or exhaust camshaft outs everything way off and when we get it close it does not seem close enough. Running condition illicits cam position faults on all four camshafts and yet the engine itself is running perfect. Smoother than it ever has before. What could we be doing wrong?

mm imo better check the tone wheels on the camshafts. One of mine moved slightly and while it ran good, the timing was off when checking at 53. It's very possible you could be out by a single tooth also but you'd notice it.

Only your exhausts are out by one tooth or 2, intakes are good. Im working on my mine, ended up replacing head gasket too might ss well.

@@kathy268 hey - so 53 degrees is where it's to be checked at. When setting the timing, you want to set at 40 degrees, line the marks on the back of the cams exactly flush with the cylinder heads. I have another video here on marking the cams with the tool. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oXll0bCTeZjTo9Y.html For the transmission, I believe it does but check your vin here: www.vindecoderz.com/EN/Mercedes-Benz - you'll see something like "automatic 722960" under "aggregates". Also let me look through my videos that I have not edited yet, may have some stuff I can upload.

You would set the timing to the base setting of 40 degrees. This needs to be done with the cam covers off and the timing tools in place. To check the timing, you check it at 53 degrees and look through the eye holes on the cam covers to ensure the cam tone wheels line up where they should.

40 or 53

The base timing is set to 40 and you check it at 53 using the eye holes.

Or just cut the overhanging intake cover the jb weld back on sand paint can’t tell , so dissatisfied with Mercedes these days … greedy they designed this flaw ….
