Jean Veteran Date registered: May 2006 Location: Belgium Vehicle(s): 1980 SWB 300GD Posts: 103 | Torque - Manifold OM617 Does anybody know if there are tightening torques specified to mount the inlet and exhaust manifold of a 5 cyl 3.0L NA OM617 engine? I cannot find anything in the Engine Repair Manual... Thanks - Jean Edited by Jean 8/23/2006 4:49 AM | ||

Mercedes Service Manual CD for W126 diesels had nothing...even for 617 turbo. Mercedes 280ge/300g handbook showed nothing. Mercedes workshop manual for 280ge showed nothing for the M110 motor even. Lastly, the Haynes manual for Diesel 123 series had no torque specs for the manifold other than: "Install a new gasket,place the manifolds in position and install the retaining nuts. Tighten nuts securely." For other related mercedes diesel maintenance items...look here: http://www.dieselgiant.com/mercedes_diesel_maintenance_tips.htm Sorry dude, I tried and failed you.

Posts: 850 | RE: Torque - Manifold OM617 For what is worth, Jean, I went to my Mb Workshop and asked the question about the Torque of the inlet/outlet manifod for the OM617/616. On theyr workshop manual it is given as "hand tight" when positioning the manifolds then tighten to 25Nm and once the engine has reached operating temperature to be tightened to 30 Nm. Hope that this will answer your question. amzimmy | ||
