The focus of this video is the installation of the turbo on the OM642 engine in situ. If you have the opportunity to install the turbo while the engine is on a stand, take it. But if you don't, this will walk you through the process of getting that turbo installed.
A couple years ago, my Mercedes GL350 - der Schißewagen! - started making a ticking sound at half engine speed. Turns out, it spun the #2 rod bearing. Well, more than spun; it demolished it. I finally decided to fix it and get it back on the road.
This video is the fourteenth installment of the rebirth. For more details, you can see my thread on Grassroots Motorsports at: [ Ссылка ]
If you've found this video because you, too, have a GL350 or other OM642-equipped vehicle you have my utmost condolences and pity. If you're thinking about buying one, or really any modern-ish Mercedes product, you might be better served by either setting your wallet on fire or starting a cocaine habit. Or hey, do both! It'll be much less painful in the long run!
