How To Change Alternator on Mercedes ML350 | W164 | How to Remove Alternator From Mercedes W164 ML-Class | Remove Alternator from ML350 Mercedes - DIY | How To Change Alternator on Mercedes W164
My vehicle has been going dead for a few months. It was time to change the alternator. This vehicle was very easy even for a beginner like me. Thank you so much for going step by step and not forgetting any. Very appreciative and helpful.
You're welcome! Glad it helped! 🙏 thanks for the visit. Good luck with your DIY project. Please share, thanks.🙏 Thanks for the like and thanks for watching.🙏
The lights would be flickering inside the cab or your battery would not charge up to 14.0 volts. While the engine is running and at idle. I have 146k on the original alternator.
Why? 🙄Mercedes is a good reliable car and if you know DIY then it's easy to maintain. If you take it to the dealership then it's pretty expensive to keep. Thanks for watching and good luck with your call.🙏
Did you remove something above the alternator? You went right from removing the serpentine to removing the alternator, but it sure seems easy to access.
No, I always try to show everything in the video to make a job easier. Why you are asking? Do you have something different? a modified alternator with special brackets? Please share, thanks for watching.🙏
After looking again, I see I have an air duct from beside the radiator to the front of the engine,below the vacuum pump. I removed that, for access. i didnt notice that you mentioned it.@@EasySteps_Sidhu
ua-cam.com/video/aYNBd7R7Wyk/v-deo.htmlsi=UpvS_c5oEoPJzKTn&t=38 As I have shown in the video only thing you need to remove is the duct alternator side and if anything else you have removed it's up to you to make the job easier.
OK, I removed the duct. I have a GL350,2013, and can't seem to get the alternator up and out ! May remove pulley, or remove throttle body. yes, it's been a month.
Have the battery light, terminals measure 11.5v. Battery is only 2-3 years old. Car starts and drives back and forth, but the computer disabled the steering.
I believe your serpentine belt is not correctly mounted, if the belt is correctly on then check your power steering pulley in case it is seized. If the pulley doesn't move then the power steering pump is gone bad. I hope it helps, thanks for watching.🙏
@@EasySteps_Sidhu you were right. The belt had slipped off and that was the cause of the steering not working. Apparently a leaking vacuum pump had caused the belt to slip off.

@@EasySteps_Sidhu Thanks. Red battery light in dash, New battery, same problem. Battery drains extremely fast. What else than alternator can it be?
After the alternator the problem will go away.👍
Great video! Thank you! How do I know it’s time to change that? Mine ML350 2009 is at 84450 miles

the consumption is high and i'm single@@EasySteps_Sidhu
the vehicle is large and heavy. I think i will go on an x3 more reasonable.
If you’re gonna buy an ML get a 2008 and up skip the 2006 and 7
@@blacktalnz_1290 i think i will go for an e83 better weight/power ratio, i don't need a lot of space

GL are different then ML and may be you have to remove it.
The alternator was probably not a bosch I'm suspecting. The one you replaced.

@@matsudakodo Thanks for sharing the info. Have a blessed day.🙏
I just got the same light
Fix that oil leak! the drip-drip will destroy your belt,and the alternator below. Vacuum pump has two gaskets.@@matsudakodo
The 2014 gl350 is much tigheter space. Can't remove.
