Today it's all about the oil pans! And the "mixing chamber". And priming the oil pump.

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 seventh installment of the rebirth. For more details, you can see my thread on Grassroots Motorsports at: https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/they-said-it-cant-be-fixed-journey-inside-mercedes/142999/page1/


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!
