Well done! I have a box with a whole bunch of different plastic rivets. Mercedes uses them all over the place, and they all seem to be different in some way as well. I just replaced a missing square one in the trunk threshold on the CL600. Someone removed it and never replaced it. Grrr. -D >

Re: [MBZ] W211 belt idler pully bolt

Yes that worked, just had to remove the metal bracket across the top, then I could pull the two clips. Didn't have to really remove the fan assembly, just move it enough so the bolt would clear. So I now have new belt, idler, and tensioner installed! I did break one of those plastic push-pin

Re: [MBZ] Okie alignment

I checked and they all appear to be working. I then had the thought that perhaps the toe is so far out on the front that the wheel on that side is cocked out enough to where there is not a line of sure to the back sensor. Sure enough turning the wheel a little fixed that issue. For some reason

Re: [MBZ] Anybody know anything about these air power bridge jacks?

I have done no checking at all. Even without a load on it it doesn’t seem to raise nearly as far as it should. I’m suspecting low fluid. I will see if I can figure out where to check it and add more. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 7, 2023, at 5:11 PM, G Mann via Mercedes wrote: > >

Re: [MBZ] Anybody know anything about these air power bridge jacks?

Typically, they are an air over hydraulic jack... the air pressure operates a piston which operates a hydraulic pump, which does the actual jack work.. If the jack does not hold pressure after jacking and bled down, that should indicate an internal leak at the check valve, or whatever the

Re: [MBZ] W211 belt idler pully bolt

The fan should be really easy to pull out. Undo the clips holding it at top then lift it up and disconnect the power. I don’t think there are any bolts/screws holding it in --FT Sent from iFōn > On Oct 7, 2023, at 5:47 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes > wrote: > > Replaced the noisy belt

Replaced the noisy belt tensioner today, and thought I'd replace the idler pully as well since it's also a bit noisy and I have the replacement that I ordered accidentally. However I cannot remove the bolt as it hits the fan shroud.

Been messing with this alignment machine learning all about it today. I have the car setup and the sensor heads compensated but I can’t get the 2 left sensors to see each other. These have a IR beam from to back on each side; then side to side on the front. At first the fronts could not see

Got some parts in for the CL600 this week, so I’ve been taking time here and there to address the remaining issues. Right rear brake light was out, which is a series of three circuit boards with LEDs on them. Not sure why they did this other than maybe for brightness without a lot of current,

This alignment lift has 2. The read one I connected air to and it tried to lift the back of the car but didn’t seem to have enough power. When raising as soon as the handles are released it starts dropping. It has a 3rd middle handle for the release which appears when it’s raised to certain
