OEM Book Shop Time - Engine Replacement
Hi, trying to find out the OEM E420 Book Time charged to replace an engine in a 1997 E420. Does anyone have a link/pdf that has what the dealership charges in time?
Thanks very much!

Out Of Control!!
That is not an easy task, because of your criteria---you say time charged to replace a certain engine---the time charged to remove an engine with auto trans is 7.3 hrs.
Now if you have an engine(not a short block) ready to go then add another 7.3 hrs
However those times do not include any time or chargable overhead\materials(coolant,engine oil and filter,transmission fluid and filter and all the associated labor) that will surely be required to start, test, diagnose---bla bla bla
