Mercedes engines are quite reliable and durable. The resource without major repairs can reach up to 500 thousand kilometers. For example, the technical characteristics of a 102 Mercedes engine: volume - 1598 cubic centimeters, power 102 horsepower, torque 150/4000 Nm, distributed injection, turbocharging, in-line arrangement of 4 cylinders, piston stroke - 79.5 millimeters, suitable fuel - AI-95. But nothing is eternal, and unfavorable Russian operating conditions, especially temperature drops in winter, lead to the need to repair the engine.
Instructions
Step 1
A fairly large number of Mercedes car owners are faced with difficulties in finding the engine number. Not everyone can show its exact location. To do this, study some of the features. The engine number marking is affixed to each car model in an individual place.
Let's take the classic version - Mercedes-Benz w124. To check the data, look for the engine model and number on the left side of the cylinder block above the engine mount. The paint plate is attached to the front upper cross member, to the left of the name plate.
Step 2
This applies to every car model. Typically, the engine number is stamped or dotted on the cylinder block. Most of the cars of this brand, belonging to the category until 09.85, have the engine number written on the rear left of the cylinder block, near the mount with the clutch cover, at the very bottom. The exception is that for an 8-cylinder petrol car, the engine number must be looked for on the back of the block head from the passenger compartment.
Almost always, the number of Mercedes diesel engines is located to the left of the cylinder block.
Here are some more examples to help you find the engine number on other Mercedes models:
M 102 - the number is on the bottom left on the block behind the power steering bracket;
M 104 - the number is on the right on the cylinder block, immediately behind the generator;
M 110 - the number is on the right on the cylinder block behind the distributor;
M 111 - the number is on the left side of the flywheel housing tide;
M 113 - the number is on the right on the cylinder block on the automatic transmission flange;
M 117 - the number is on the left side of the flywheel housing tide;
M 119 - the number is located on the left side of the flywheel housing tide or in the front in the collapse of the cylinders;
M 120 - the number is on the right on the cylinder block behind the starter;
M 112 - the number is on the right on the cylinder block on the automatic transmission flange;
