    Michael is really good at putting things back together carefully, making sure everything lines up and isn't too tight. He's not just fixing the problem; he's making sure it stays fixed. I know because my old car has 152,000 miles on it, and it's still doing great. The only thing I had to change was the power steering reservoir, and now it runs smoothly thanks to one from Euro Power Motorsports.

    The Reservoir with filter needed a replacement at 75,000 miles. Removing air box would have allowed hose replacements.

      it should say 'atf oil only' on the cap, so you can use most Automatic Transmission Fluids, like Dexton 3

    I had to get a new alternator because there was leaves and a paper towel in the alternator air duct blocking the air flow keeping the alternator cool.

    Was your car jacked up at the front whilst doing this or not? I didn't see you drain the old ATF oil out from the bottom of the car so I assume you didn't? Cheers.

      @WarpDriveM  6 років тому +2

      Fabian Dee It wasn't. I just drain the fluid from reservoir and from hoses for this repair. After that I just top up with fluid. This car is now in the process of installing a turbo kit. Just watch my other videos on my channel. Thx for watching

    The power steering fluid lines might be brittle, at least the bigger one - I was told this happens regulary.
    And yup, its leaking even after I cut off a bit and put a new hose clamp on.

      Because there is no rubber anymore on that old part of the hose. That's why you have to cut that part out.

    Fixing the leak is not a final solution. System needed a complete flush. Steering rack and seals are going next.
    Learn the flush procedure. Mercedes Benz saying & R&R filter with complete flush every 40,000 miles.
