Thanks so much for this video! I've just changed the diesel fuel filter for my Merc. My hand primer broke. And that's where I realized that you can just put in the filter, leave the ignition on and hear the fuel pump priming the filter. Then start it. All ok. Starts just like normal. I let it run for 5 minutes, all ok. :) Just so you know.
Its is ok to prime the filter in these higher class cars, but its not mandatory since there is an electric diesel pump that will prime the system anyways just do 2 key sycles. Also fiats have that electric pump. Peugeot does not and its very hard to blead out, specially the 1.4HDI used in ford fiesta (with bosh injectors), that one is really hard to prime
Good video. Will my W204 C250 CDI be the same as this for thr fuel filter? Also, do you need to de pressurise the fuel system before removing the fuel lines? Thanks.
Yeh great vid, the more people start servicing their own cars the better. Having just serviced a SLK55 AMG and an S500 £100 in oil and filters for both cars, and a couple of hour out of my evening and that's it. Would have cost me a pretty penny at Mercedes huh!
Thanks very much, Whether you use the video to teach yourself to do it or you just wanna know how it is done I hope it helps out many. Cheers for the comment.
Great video, very informative, can I ask what size wrench cap is used for removing / replacing the oil filter? As you stated it's also used for VW and generic but didn't state the size. Great video
It s recommanded about 25 000 km but if you want the best for your engine, do it about 15 000 km... It's better and it will improve your car's fiability..
Can someone please tell me where the fuel filter is located on a 2014 C250 sport sedan? Nowhere on the internet ive replaced parts but still can't find the fule filter unless its inside the fuel pump?
Very informative content, thanks! One question tho: you mentioned that I don't necessarily need the pump to fill up the fuel filter. What happens if I dont? How long does it take to fill up on its own? Should I put ignition on multiple times to make the fuel pump start, or I can just fire it up right away? I am curios because I'm about to change the filter soon, and my friend tought me that it can take an our or so to get it started in case I dont use a pump. Thanks!
Yes by turning over the engine after cycling the key fuel will move & fill the filter, it will self bleed once it starts back up again, timing of it varies I couldn't say for sure how long it will take. Some are terrible and require battery to be charged to continue the swinging others start after a few swings. I would recommend avoiding this if at all possible, use a hose with a small funnel and you could fill up the filter. It really is a better way to get it started and allows the battery to remain charged whilst putting the least amount of stress on the starter & pump etc.. This goes for all vehicles I am talking about this model in particular. Hope this helps.

Thanks for this assume this is acceptable way of doing it
@@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage may I ask, why do you have oil next to the filling oil cap? Is just a mistake, or is a leak? Thank you!

Hey man nice work, i like that fuel syringe you have if you connect it to the fuel supply line would it be strong enough to draw diesel from the tank?
There is a good chance it would be, I haven't used it for that purpose as I have a vacuum tool for that. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
Does this engine have a turbo?
what is the key number of the oil filter?

Hi! What is the recommended oil change interval for a c220 cdi w204 from 2008?
I heard it was 25000km (approx 15000 miles)
It s recommanded about 25 000 km but if you want the best for your engine, do it about 15 000 km... It's better and it will improve your car's fiability..
Es un video magnífico, lástima no saber inglés, pero ha sido muy claro y específico, gracias desde Galdakao, Bilbao.....

Can anyone tell me where the filter is in the fuel filler on a merc c220 2006
Good job
You primed the fuel filter on the centre pipe, bypassing the filter entirely, you should have used the one closest to the rim.
