Put the SLK55 oil cooler yesterday,, Instead of the water helper,,

Thank GOD, set perfectly.....




ZAYED,,

What are the benefits over ours??

This cooler has an additional air cooler with fan, i put it behind the Bumper(right side), sorry i didn’t picture it,, also im afraid if the original cooler

damaged or seals goes bad, it well mixing oil with water,, i don’t want to think about risky nightmares,, in the summer the temperature sometimes

reachs "51C".......

ZAYED,,

shu habibi.
you're a colorfull guy, you like all kinds of boja.

did you get those parts new or used?
were there lots of stuff to modify to your engine to fit those coolers?
any improvement vs stock?

Thankss,, yeah like colours,, gives a freshy feeling always...,

Those parts are new(see attach),,

No need any mods to put that cooler, it sets Exactly like the stock one, just need to cut the rubber hoses(that joint to the pipes), with little bit

twisting those pipes, it well fit perfectly,, and customizing bracket for the cooler(behind the bumper),, i didn’t comparing between them yet,

i well see & let you know.....



ZAYED,,

So you're saying that this new oil cooler is an air-oil cooling type rather than the water/oil type we have stock? Or is there just a fan by the bumper to aid the cooling? Also how much for that upgrade?

Yes sure,, the cooler has an additional fan,, Exactly like the W140/W220/W215 (see attach),,

1) Cooler Housing: ($217)

2) Filter Housing: ($48)

3) Pipe lines: ($102) each



ZAYED,,

Nice and interseting upgrade for those who live in hot climates or those who like to "thrash" the daylights out of the vehicle on track or mountain roads

Agreeeeed....

ZAYED,,

I want to share the difference between SLK55 AMG Engine oil filter(which im using) & the all other M112s & M113s oil filter including the AMG models,,

1) SLK55 oil filter #: "000 180 28 09"



2) Other M112s & M113s including AMGs oil filter #: "000 180 26 09"



3) pics. together



*noticed that the SLK55 oil filter got only 4 o-rings, and shorter than the one from all M112s & M113s, [don’t know the reason]...!?!?

ZAYED,,

Lower bonnet line on the SLK55 wouldn't let the taller oil filter fit. Purely a packaging problem.

Zayed
are you using Magnecore KV85 sparkplug wires?
are you happy with them?
did they ever pop off from the plugs or ignition coils?

have you noticed any improvements from Magnecore wires vs stock MB wires?

I have them since over a year now. No problems ever and I have never seen a sparkplug cap pop out.

The difference between stock and these, it is difficult to say and remain objective minded, but they certainly look better with a bit of red color...

Also, if you need to pull a plug it is easier as you don't need to use the 17mm open spanner method to remove the cap

i noticed the Mag wires in Zayed's pictures.
all kinds of feedback from many peepol is necessary before purchase.

Mag wires handles a lot of heat and possibly cheaper to buy than factory wires.
other than that I don't know if they are an improvement vs factory wires?

+1....,

ZAYED,,

Agreed,,

Feedback is soo important, specially with aftermarket wires,,

i have a bad experts with an Evosport wires, i put some pics. here:

https://mbworld.org/forums/c36-amg-c...-set-need.html

that’s why i been careful before purchased Mag wires,,

don’t worry; Mag wires are great wires, you can go with them confidently.....

ZAYED,,

Zayed, we love your English...

Thankss....

Hi Zayed

I need part numbers of the oil cooler and lines..

How do you close the coolant in and out?

Filter housing is the same with all M112/M113, but the cooler core is differ than all N/A M112/M113,,

that's why should to get the cooler core to put the External line in it..!

[see attached]







ZAYED,,

Perfect!
Tell me the last thing.. about the cooling in and out... how did you close these two? Or do you connect these two simply with a hose?

Sorry, what do you mean about close them..?

do you mean plugged out these ports holes..??

ZAYED,,

Yes, exactly these two ports (blue) look at my picture.
Is this for the coolant of the OEM oil cooler? What I have to do with these two ports?

Yeah, i remember; i plugged them with silicone plug caps..!
