Frequently Asked Questions
Is the OM651 balance shaft gear failure addressed in this manual?
Yes. The OM651 engine used in the E220 CDI is known for balance shaft gear wear, particularly on earlier production units. The manual includes complete disassembly and reassembly procedures for the balance shaft assembly, updated torque specifications, and diagnostic steps to determine whether the gear set requires replacement.
Does this manual cover both the W212 sedan and the S212 estate?
It covers both body styles. The W212 four-door sedan and the S212 estate (wagon) share the same OM651 powertrain and most chassis systems, and all shared procedures are fully documented. Body-specific sections – such as tailgate, roof, and load-area components – are addressed separately within the bodywork chapters.
Are wiring diagrams and CAN bus network schematics included?
Yes. The electrical section contains full circuit diagrams for the engine management system, ABS/ESP, COMAND infotainment, climate control, lighting, and central locking. CAN bus network topology, connector pinouts, wire color codes, and ground point locations are all included to support modern Mercedes diagnostics.
