Dude your videos are awesome! Help me so much with my c63 head bolt job. Question I have in case you see this, did you put RTV on the new head bolts? Any specific type needed for that? Also, with the cam adjusters, how do you get them back into their correct position if after you take them out, they are slightly misaligned? This happened on my c63 because the hole in the gears isn’t threaded so all I was able to do is stick a 5mm bolt in there to hold them in place however upon removal, they are about 1/8” misaligned. My buddy working on the car with me says they can be payed back into place with a flat head. Just curious if you have any tips or tricks on how to do that without risking damage of the cam adjuster. Thanks!

Not only is there a specific sequence from center to the outside of the head, the tightening of the individual bolts is a multi-step process, starting with a 10Nm torque, then a 50Nm torque, the three successive 90 degree turns, all using the tightening sequence. The valve covers also have a tightening sequence.

hey man, what part of canada are you from? i have a sl430 MY2000 in my garage t home, and having a few issues with it starting i was wondering if i could some how make contact with ya and we can talk, thanks kevin
How about a manual swap for the ML ?
Can you give example of noise caused by bad camshaft adjuster.
Are you able to Machine me a new set of these? Great video!
great video thanks dont your think it would have been better to change the head gasket as well tasos Moschatos recommends not changing the head bolt without changing the head gasket as it disrupted even if you do each bolt one by one thank you
This summer i will be doing my cam adjusters. Since the camshafts will be off its quite obvious its no or never to also do headbolts. BUT, my m156 has 166,000miles. No record of anyone doing them. Vin is in the affected range. My main question is when you reinstall the camshafts does the cam holder tool put them back in the correct position as when you removed them?

Hey brother be careful when you remove those head bolts. She got a few miles on her and then damn bolts get so corroded they snap. I seen it it’s a nightmare, god bless and good luck bro.
wow. I didn't realize how soft those plates were. i have this going on with my M156 and fighting with the dealer to get them to fix it under warranty.

They look like they're probably made with a powdered metal process and didn't get proper heat treating.

@@SeishukuS12 Sintered stuff is normally used where it is too hard/expensive to machine. It would probably be way cheaper to machine a simple part like this, especially if it is soft metal.

@@coast2coast00 normally, yeah, but it can also lend to mass production as well... In high numbers it would likely be cheaper for a sintered part. The surface and edge finish kind of look like a sintered part as well, though that could also be just a tumble stone polish.

Thought this was an old engine , should be well out of warranty with a dealer .
How much did this job cost parts / labor if I may ask ..?
I found a c63 Amg 2009 guy said they changed the head bolts an after that it started to misfire 1-3 cylinder it has 155k miles his asking 8k what could be the problem
Did you replace the head gasket lmao? Or just the bolts 🤔😐
you should weld the worn whole shut and mill new whole on the other side
Hi how much if I bring the plates and u fix them for me thanks
Hi what is the cost for this job to be done?
Where are you located in Canada?
Too bad you were not in Texas! My M276 needs timing adjusters lol!
can't wait
is there a specific sequence for bolt replacement? Or I can start from anywhere? Like clockwise?)

Not only is there a specific sequence from center to the outside of the head, the tightening of the individual bolts is a multi-step process, starting with a 10Nm torque, then a 50Nm torque, the three successive 90 degree turns, all using the tightening sequence. The valve covers also have a tightening sequence.
