- the up and down steering column stops working - this is a very common problem on a Mercedes, but this problem is very easy to fix. (I posted this video before and it got a lot of views and positive reviews) after being accidentally deleted, I decided to repost this video again, because this video was very useful. If this video helped you, leave a positive comment, thanks.
You made me laugh out loud, ......if your overweight, you're gonna have a bad time.
Video of the year! A+
2013 SL550 was stuck up. Banged up and down and just wouldn’t move. When all else fails sometimes you just have to go to plan B. Followed this video tugging on the cable at the same time as I pushed the switch downward and the actuator cable was on a bind. After several attempts it finally broke loose and the tilt worked as it should. Before I closed everything up I applied a small amount of lithium grease to the threads of the actuator. I also disabled the easy exit feature to disable the wheel from constantly going to the full up position. Thank you for the Video. The process took about one hour, saved me a trip to the dealership and most likely a hefty repair bill….

You saved me! The solution was as demonstrated. However, in order to save some extra dismantle and reassembly time I managed to loosen the nut without fully removing the plastic cover and unplugging wires, or undoing the hood release. It almost broke my back in a contorted position, but by gently pulling down the plastic after removing the initial 3 screws, I could snake my wrench up to the nut. After loosening, I put the steering wheel out (closest position to my body) bumped the wheel several times but no change. I reversed the wheel to telescope closest position to the dashboard, bumped it (pretty hard) a few times while fiddling the adjustment lever up and down and ... shazam.
Problème solved!! Been dealing with this issue for more than a year.. thank you so much, you’re a money saver.. 🙏
Just try it on my 2021 amg gt 53 and it worked! Thanks 🙏🏼 for this video saved me hundreds of dollars 💸🙌🏼👏🏻🙌🏼🤝
GREAT I JUST DID IT AND IT WAS SO EASY THANK YOU LESS THAN 10 MIN 🎉🎉🎉
Been having this issue on my CL550 and your video worked perfectly ! Thank you
Great video, very descriptive, thanks ! Indeed the screw has a tendency to get stuck. You simply have to unlock it, with universal pliers for example
In my case I had to tighten up the screw instead and it worked! Thank you for your video !
You give a help for me! Thank you sir!
Thanks man 👍so helpful
This solution worked on my 2012 c350
Thanks for help!!!! problem solved
This happened to my Mercedes E350 Sports Coupe two days ago ... I have been looking for a fix since ... Many thanks Erop, Baden Powell
Just fixed mine 2016 e350. I’m fat so it was harder. Used pliers and prodded the cable also
Thanks again
Hello sir please can you tell me how to reattach the hood cable ? I am having trouble with that.
Thank you 🙏🏻 💪🏻👌🏻
I have the same problem with my 2015 CLS63 AMG S. I hope this works.
Did you solve it? I tried what the video says but still is stuck
I just did this and greased it but my Question is has the problem ever came back?
What’s this part called?
It’s worked on My 2011 W204 C250 🎉🎉
But I have a question. My steering wheel became loose. It can tilt down manual if I push down on the top of steering wheel. Am I bolt it back too loose? Is anyone have the same problem?
All this is unnecessary. Just hold the tilt lever down and bang of the top of the steering wheel and it will break loose. Done it a ton of times.
Thanks for the tip- I just noticed that my steering wheel won't tilt and Your recommendation helped :)
yo wtf this method works 🫡
Thank you helped me fix my 12 E350 😅
Not always helping. Playing with the nut giving better results.
Yep. Thank you! 😊 Took a few goes. Hitting steering wheel while operating the lever. Direction of strike needs to be the same a lever operation. Works on a 2011 E250 Coupe (A207).
But what is stuck and why? Everything works for me except the up-tilt….
Another trick that works 8/10 times is going up and down on the lever about 100 times, eventually it will destick its self, I've had success on a bunch of mercs. Worth a shot if you aren't home to use the tools
I dont know how to thank you man.. you a legend!

You don't need to disassemble it. If you do not use it for a long time, it gets stuck. If you forcibly lift the handle with your knee and move the tilt upward, the stuck thing will come off and it will work normally. hahahahaha
OH MY FUCKING GOD IT WORKED WTF!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! This is insane!!! I was so frustrated for a whole day!!!I love you!
THANK YOU!!!
Oh my goodness - this worked! I tried everything but this fixed in 2 seconds - genius - thank u
Would this work on a 2017 c300
Buy bmw
just sold one, suffered a lot with it. Mersedes much better, but any car can break down
Never
