AJBoost How-to/Instruction's Thread

Junior Member
Hey fellas,

I'm a new member and would like to start by saying this is a great forum!

The reason i'm starting this thread is I can't seem to find detailed instructions for the pulley/belt
removal on the C32 AMG.

Perhaps we can use this thread to post ANY and ALL Technical Information regarding the
C32/C55 AMG's. Keeping this info all in one thread will keep search clutter down to a minimum.
With that said, feel free to add any links I may have missed or that will become available.
Thanks,
Albert Hernandez.

PS, I hope members don't mind me posting info/links to their threads. If anyone does, please pm
me and i'll be sure to remove the link.

SilverBulletAMG Welcome aboard! The links you posted would go great in this sticky thread, if they aren't already
MBWorld Fanatic! there. https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...7-10-07-a.html
As for your belt removal, crank the tensioner pulley (#9 in the graph above) and it will take the
tension off the belt. Then just slip it off.

Fantastic, thanks for the belt/pulley info. I found a diagram on the net as well.
I'm aware of the "newbie" thread. However, i'd like THIS thread to condense the many links found
throught the forum and be focuesd primarily on all things TECHNICAL. This way forum members,
new and old, may find schematics/diagrams instantly.
In the Subaru community we have a site called Scoobymods.com which does this. It's very
helpful, especially when your under the car and forget what goes where! lol

I found this: https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...r-c32-diy.html
