Well I got them all out (and didn't end up using penetrant). I think the previous owner used something on the plug threads which I understand is a bad idea.

New plugs in, all is good.

I am trying to replace the plugs on my W210 and after following the great DIYs here, I can get the plug boots off.

On the PITA scale, how hard is removing the rear window? For example I'd rate a brake flush a 2/10 and the motor mounts a 8/10. Rear window maybe a 5?

I agree with Steve and others. On my E230 wagon, I had your exact problem and a new Mercedes battery fixed it.

I was surprised how many amps the system must pull to turn over.

I wouldn't buy this car if you want "fast" but it sure is fun to drive. I actually couldn't imagine having an auto with this engine.

While you are in there with the air filter - make sure that the foam insulation isn't falling off and clogging the air flow sensor.

On my 190E 2.3 it really needed to get vacuumed out.
