-Remove ABC pump
-Disconnect/disassemble line
-Lift Motor
-Assemble all components
-Fill/Bleed PS system
-Fill/Bleed ABC system
-Perform Rodeo
-Change Filter


This will take at least 6 hours and will cost much money because I will need a few liters of CHF-11S mineral oil.
you sure? i read through the direction, it dont' say anything about removing the pump to replace the high pressure expension hose..#13 right..

well, maybe your info resource is different..

btw..the end cap thats leaking is pulsation damper built into the line...

Never mind I read it... they had it under "Pulsation Damper" and not "HPE Hose" in WIS.

They recently lowered the pricing on the hydraulic fluid! Yippie good news for us all.

It is $16.68 + Shipping from Parts.com http://www.parts.com/oemcatalog/inde...id=67&siteid=2

The dealer sells it for $22.50 /liter.. used to be $50 /liter.

Nope, first time around I could not find anything about that hose in WIS so I just went at it until it was out of there.

I've done this work many times after my car, sometimes I document it. Here's a thread about a CL600 that I took care of: https://mbworld.org/forums/cl55-amg-...-pictures.html
