DIY water pump
Im having some bad luck and finding small things starting to need attention on my 09 s550. I kept hearing chirping so I took the belt off and inspected all the pulleys and the water pump pulley was wobbling slightly but no leaks so looks like there'll be a diy on doing the water pump and a coolant flush soon. Sucks because I just did a coolant flush in the summer...
Also a friend of mine whos a mercedes benz tech told me that on our cars theres a DTB about the original belt being too wide for the pulleys and causing chirping noise. There is a new revised Poly V drive belt that is narrower so I ordered that as well. |

Membership FYI have dealer check vehicle master inquiry (VMI) to see if VIN is included, if included and belt was not replaced it is covered even out of warranty. |

Update: I got the new belt free of charge thnx konigstiger! Looks like the amount of play in the water pump is normal so I will not be doing the pump yet but when it does arise I will do a write up on this post
