Hi, all. Ticking noise in left bank requires that I replace the oil supply tubes on top of the camshaft. Does anyone have the torque specs for the bolts? Unfortunately, I could not get WIS to load properly on my computer.
Regards,
Perry

 

12 NM for the cam bolts and 9NM for the valve covers

 

Thanks for the torque specs and the quick reply!

Hi, can someone please give me the flexplate torque specs for my 1991 500SL?

Thanks!

 

If other members aren't able to get you the numbers, you may have to get a workshop manual for your R129 - it'll have all the torque specs and diagrams in general.
