Need help I have a 03 e500 that has a faulty SBC reservoir.
Dealer want 900
Is there a way I can buy the past and replace it myself?

Thank you

 

Buying the part is not the problem, it costs about $350 new. You need a scanner capable of relieving the SBC brake fluid pressure to swap the part out ( 45 minute job ).

 

Can I just disconnect the battery and the sbc connector to swap it out and open the bleeder valve on the calipers to releave the pressure.
I have a bleeder system if I need to bread the brakes

 

Won't work as the calipers aren't under pressure when off but the reservoir IS under pressure at all time.

 

Buy an autoenginuity scanner with the mercedes extension. Between the scanner and the part it should be cheaper than what the dealer is charging and you and you have a very valuable tool to keep.

 

Where would I be able to get that autoenginuity from?

 

http://www.autoenginuity.com/products-scantoolpc.html. Is this website you went to?

I have this one at home will this scanner work?

 

Aight.

 

Sup brah long time o see

 

How was your guyses dinner?? I wanted some sushi

 

It was good man the sushi was banging brah man

 

You need to change the 500 hp to 500 whp

 

As far as I know the autoenginuity scanner is the only "cheap" scanner that can do it.

I bought it from that same site.

 

Awesome thank you GT-ER I will order it. And your right you do need one of these scanners at home for a merc, because the scanner I have is mostly for american cars.

Plus the scanner you told me to get pretty much pays for itself that I would have got a tech to use only once

 

No problem. :-)
