1998 E300TD 606, w210 Cylinder Head
Hey all,
I'm looking for a cylinder head that will fit my 1998 E300 turbo diesel. A glow plug was broke, and the drilling/helicoil method was unsuccessful. If anyone has a cylinder head for this model or knows of where/who I can get one from it would be much appreciated! Also, if anyone knows the actual part number on the cylinder head that would be great, as I have had trouble in trying to find it. Cheers, John |

Too bad about the glow plug work, did a machine shop attempt the job? I saw one in a local shop and the 606 head looks sorta like Swiss cheese with those multiple valve ports. Thats a scarce head too. You might find an engine for a Grand or a little more and take the head off it and sell the rest and reduce the cost, because one from a dealer is likely going to really set you back.
There was a complete car - '99 turbodiesel - FS in Las Vegas earlier in the year for around $2000 as I recall, 2 glow plugs broken off and in owners driveway. needed a tow. If it was closer I would have bought it but really don't need any more car projects these days. The 98 - 99 turbodiesels are worth fixing - great running cars, eh?
