Re: 2014 E63S: plugs and coils
It does want dielectric grease on the boots so they don't weld themselves to the plugs. Mine pulled out pretty easily (I had to use hose pliers and pry against the fuel rail but nothing broke and the popped free). Relevant torques: plugs are 17 lb-ft (Bosch box says so, and WIS agrees, though I did ...

2014 E63S: plugs and coils
Checking in before completion which may be bad luck. Removed driver's side coils and plugs. New plugs are installed and torqued. They indexed about the same as the Mercedes branded plugs did, seemingly beyond the 45 degree spec. But I'm not going to sand down washers. It's not tuned, it'll be fine. ...

Re: 14 E63S: forged wheel search
20240526_145403.jpg It's more aggressive and interesting. The factory S model wheels are more reserved and classy I suppose. More specifically, from the side angle like this, I do prefer the forged wheel. However, from an oblique angle, the original 10 spoke looks, like I said before, a little high...

I added maybe 6 oz more but not sure it needed it. I was doing the truck so I had it in my hands....

Re: Mercedes E63S thread
Recentered myself. I did half a turn on the tie-rods and that was about right. It's SLIGHTLY off to the right (instead of to the left) but not worth another tweak. The driver's side jamb nut required heat to loosen. Actually I think I used heat on the right but it was definitely not squeaking like t...

Re: CLK550/E550 hunt for Adam
Things that would be left for Adam (aside from anything I didn't get to above): - Continue to investigate airbag module issues. Not sure if it would be as simple as an eBay module swap or what. The real concern is whether you have a functioning airbag system - you know, for safety. The light works ...

Re: CLK550/E550 hunt for Adam
For the missing seal at the battery/HVAC partition wall, try these numbers to see if they look right:
A1708310098 - nope, looks like the cowl seal
A2036281298 - can't find on eBay for photo
A2036281098 - cable duct seal so it has cut outs for round things

Re: Mercedes E63S thread
1 camber bolt installed (completing the set of 4 bolts, two camber, two caster). Unfortunately, the adjustment is only good for like 0.25 degrees which is about what happened. Went from that -2.7 to -2.5 or so. Max spec is -2.2 and it really wants to be more like -1.8. He thought maybe the strut was...

Re: CLK550/E550 hunt for Adam
It was coded as a convertible further suggesting that this ECU came from somewhere else. If it came from a 2007 CLK convertible that would explain both coding issues. So I set it to C209 (A209 would be the convertible). 20240525_070707.jpg 20240525_070713.jpg 20240525_070941.jpg There is a way to co...
