Work on Evonne the Turbodiesel Begins!
Ойын-сауық
Evonne is the name of my 2005 E320 CDI with the amazing OM648 engine, the best
turbodiesel that Mercedes ever built. Before I go crazy with modifications I
need to take care of the basics! Checking on the exhaust and differential,
plus changing the oil, and replacing a stuck thermostat. Subscribe to our
Substack, where the most detailed information will be shared:

Bought similar car from Sacramento, am excited to do the same with my Cdi. Love your channel
Good information. I have the same spec car as yours. 2005 e320 cdi black on black. I did the thermostat last year and ran into the same issue with the non threaded bolt. Looks like someone skipped a step when building the thermostat. Look forward to watching more of your videos.

Thanks! Next time I'd certainly check and try to tap it ahead of time. There's always a chance of some stray chips making their way through the radiator and coolant passages as a result. Would probably get trapped in the radiator, hurting the cooling effectiveness.
do you recommend synthetic oil?

Absolutely! Especially on any turbocharged engine. You don't want the oil coking up in the turbo, and synthetics are better at high temperatures.
