Hello,

I need a little more info as to what you actually want to address. Attached below are the exploded views of the major components of the front drive. Please take a look and let me know what you're looking for, and I can then provide WIS docs. Also, I prefer you provide VIN so that I provide most accurate data. The data attached is from my 2014.

Thanks,

Joe

This helps me out as well because it shows where everything goes but I was just wondering if there is a pdf for the process of removing/ reinstalling the front axles.. my vin is WDDHF7GB6GB303399. I have a 2016

thanks

Valvestud

Attached is the procedure to R&R the axles. There's numerous sub procedures within the document, so let me know if you need others.

Regards,

Joe

Hi everyone
Potential owner of a WDD212 E63 S AMG with B07 option = Carbon Ceramic brakes
I'd like to know if someone is having access to tech sheet regarding the carbon ceramic brakes
Since in case of issue, the replacement cost would be over 10K, it makes this topic sensitive to me :-)
Thanks in advance
Nick

Valvestud

It is unclear what you are asking for.

NickE63AMG

What is unclear?
I'm looking for Mercedes tech sheet of CCB option B07
I'm supposing to find info to know how to assess the discs, the pads
And advises on how to use car with CCB

Does someone has the PDF for this very expensive option?

Valvestud

OK, guess it's just me. Hopefully someone will chime in to help.

I don't have a PDF on how to asses our CCBs, but I have read they are not to be measured with calipers as you would a traditional iron rotor. They are to be weighed. The Rotor hat has info. edged on "min. weight ____"
As for pads. Also, I have read, one is to swap them at 50% for maximum rotor longevity. Yes, they are specific for CCB rotor.
Use. I am sure 99% of us who have cars with this option use these brakes like the ones with the Iron brakes. Some people feel like this option is not worth it for a car that won't be tracked. Some argue that CCBs only provide better resistance to brake fade as oppose to enhanced brake bite. And so on and so forth. Yes, they can be damaged if you drop your wheel on to the rotor when swapping tires. I have also seen pics on BMW forum where a chunk "just fell off the face of CCB rotor" (maybe rock chip?).
Lastly, there are iron ring replacements for these brakes for when that time inevitably comes and one would feel $10+K for a brake job on a 6-8 y/o car is hardly worth it.
Personally, I just feel the 405mm rotors look damn sexy filling up all that empty space behind the wheel spokes.




I don't think it was just you. I wasn't sure what he meant either. Furthermore, I have yet to put any of the WIS you have uploaded to use, but I thank you very much for all the assistance you provide on this thread.

Thank you for your answer Rehabguy
Is it your car you put on your post?

Rehabguy

NP. Yes. My car.

Hopefully these are what you need.

Do you have the info on oil cooler gasket replacement and bolt torque specs as well as the oil filter housing to engine torque specs for VIN WDDHF7GB7EA984434?

Valvestud

[/QUOTE]
I think you're asking for the part of the procedure detailing the thermostat specifically. Attached.

Regards,

Joe

Valvestud

Attached are the procedures for the Oil Coller, and Oil Filter Housing. Not sure if you're wanting parts info for the coolant. If so, I've attached a pic of all the parts. Let me know what detail you're looking for,

Regards,

Joe

Joe - super helpful! Thank you!

Is there a separate oil cooler on the engine block on these cars? I saw a parts diagram and it is part number 278-188-04-01. If so, do you happen to have the procedure for the removal, install, and fastener torque?

Valvestud

Perhaps you're looking for the small cooler near the oil filter housing. The part number based on your VIN is A2781880301, and is item number 170 on the attached pic.

I've attached the procedure that I believe pertains to the Oil-Water Heat Exchanger. Let me know if you need something else.

Regards,

Joe

Code7rpd

Joe - that was exactly what I needed. Thank you!

Code7rpd

Any chance you have information on replacing the oil separator valve behind the oil breather cover? Trying to figure out if the bolt for removal is a left hand thread bolt or not like in some of the other models.

Valvestud

Hopefully the attached pic and list are the right parts. If not, I'll need more info. If correct, I'll look up any WIS docs I can find.

Regards,

Joe

Code7rpd

Hi Joe - yes, that is the correct diagram. The bolt I was concerned with was bolt #10. It seems that on some cars the bolt is a left hand thread. I’m hoping WIS clarifies.

Valvestud

Doc attached. The procedure does not indicate left hand, and the picture of the subject screw looks to be right hand.

Regards,

Joe

Code7rpd

Thanks, Joe! Huge help!

Any chance I can get the procedure for replacing front and rear struts/shocks as well as front control arms and inner/outer tie rods? I'm more interesting in all the torque specs. I appreciate all of the help!

Valvestud

Hopefully these give you all you need. Let me know.

Regards,

Joe

Code7rpd

Perfect - thanks, Joe! Is there a specific one for the inner tie rods by chance?

Valvestud

Is the part you're looking for on the attached pic? If not, I need better direction because your and my descriptions rarely line up with MB.
