I have the turbo back in and have to finish up connecting the exhaust down pipe to the back of the turbo. I may have to take the car to the dealer or a European indy to compete the second step after torqueing the (3) screws to ( 20 NM). Step two is tightening the screws and additional ( 90 degs ). These screws face the engine bulkhead and is under engine shielding. The top (2) are sort accessible but third is on the bottom with very little access. Matter of fact I dropped the third screw and still need to find it. Below is the link to where been posting most of my photos of this project. Things to Complete list 1) Install O2 probe at elbow of exhaust pipe 2) Install new CCV valve assembly 3) Install fuel rail to fuel rail connection line 4) Double check that all fuel injector supply nuts have been torqued 5) Install new fuel filter ( I will prefill filter with fuel ) 6) Install charge air from turbo to front of engine and turbo intercooler 7) Reinstall injector return fuel line 8) Install air intake assembly that connects to the turbo. ( I purchased new seal for this joint ) 9) Install all remaining electrical connectors 10) Install rear shield located behind turbo 11) Install new inlet air filters, left & right 12) Install the rest of the engine shielding 13) double check that all electrical and mechanical items 14) Install coolant that was drained from engine 15) test start engine ( May take several tries as fuel lines need to be recharged ) Link to Oil cooler seal replacement project: https://mbworld.org/forums/m-class-w166/834751-2012-ml350-blutec-oil-cooler-leak-repair.html Bob Massmann 2012 ML350 Bluetec 87,000 miles _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
