Thanks for this very technical explanation. You made it so ABC and simple. Can I clean my turbo safely by by spraying turbo cleaner into my turbo system? I have a similar engine as yours and I am wary of inducing any engine codes. Thanks again.

Good layman’s explanation.

Great intro, can’t wait for this series! Okay so I have this exact car, year, model, engine and I noticed the other day that the reservoir above the turbo you pointed to at the begging of the video has been getting very hot, any ideas?

Papi Sebastian did you find out what it was?

So where did you get a new turbo manifold from since the stock turbo and manifold are 1 piece? Also are you planning on upgrading to the forged pistons since the stock internals aren’t rated for much boost increase?

Do you have any idea why depo headlight bulbs are shaking? Plz and Thank you

Hey by any chance have you found any ambient lighting product that you recommend? I have a 2010 c300 & I want ambient lighting like in my w205

Why you go back to the stock air intake filter? Is it only for this video or have you been using the stock one as opposed to the bms intake?

Hello Flex, how are you? Look, I have a little problem with my mercedes, c 250 2014 I put a relief valve on it and then everything was fine, but my voice control broke inadvertently I put one on it, but now it keeps pulling pressure. nikebs and not the car does not move, what do you think it is?

I take it your mods would work for a 220 CDI coupe too? In the UK. I guess it’s just sourcing the performance parts.

If I have an oil leak at the turbo bank 1 between turbine and compressor any suggestions on how to stop leak…or should I be replacing something?

@TheFlexxGarage

No clue. On my c250 when I did have an oil leak near the turbo, it was a fail oil feed/return line. Replaced it and no more leak. This was a common known issue.

Where did you buy the turbo hoses (blue color) showed in the: how the turbo system works in the c250 coupe. Thanks.

Go watch my c250 turbo charge pipe video. All the info is there.

Can you do a video showing where the coolant thermostat is located ?

No. Cars been sold a year ago

When you had the throttle body exposed was there any carbon build-up in there ? I get slightly rough idle sometimes and thinking there may be a little carbon build-up in the throttle body housing outside the perimeter of that movable flap. This happened on my truck which cleaning resolved so wondering if the M271 turbo builds carbon in a similar way ?

My car did exactly what you said they try to say low pressure but the high pressure is okay that's very confusing

Is there a regular service that needs to be done for the turbo in this engine? My wife has a 2012 C250 Sedan with about 120K miles with no issues.

@TheFlexxGarage

No there isn’t. (To my knowledge) Just make sure your oil to the car is changed regularly and don’t let it breakdown too far. Also, the gasket to the metal oil feed line to the turbo usually fails and starts slowly leaking oil. It’s a pretty straight forward replacement.

Google “engine blow•by”. Some oil is fine. A lot of oil is not good.

Am I missing something or did he sell the c250? I’m still waiting on the turbo upgrade

Hey flexx love the vids man!!! Im a new Benz owner, got a 2012 C250 sedan, and im coming from a 2009 Jetta Wolfsburg Edition 2.0T....when i would accelerate on my Wolfie, i could hear the turbo clearly, and it was music to my ears! However even with my windows down, i hear no turbo "whistle" from my Benz....is this normal? Or should i be concerned?

I have a 2014 C250 Sedan...That's very normal.. In a few of Flexx's videos, he talks about the turbo muffler that MB installed in our cars. Our cars are designed to be efficient and quiet. If you haven't already, I suggest ripping through a ton of his DIY mod videos. They are inexpensive, fun to do and really make our cars more fun to drive. Welcome to the MB community!

Turbocharger is always located directly after the exhaust manifold. That is the rule if the car is stock. There are no exceptions whatsoever.

@TheFlexxGarage

Not 100% true. A portion of the turbo is attached to the manifold but it’s not all turbo after the manifold. The exhaust manifold exhaust spins a shaft that leads to the turbo and spins the turbo. So you can say the shaft that spins is after the manifold but not really the entire turbo. The airflow starts in the air intake and then into turbo, then it’s becomes charged through the exhaust fumes spinning the shaft that spins the turbo.
