Hey everyone,

A few days ago my buddy brought up his sister's m104 (3.2) 300E to have me talk a look at how rough it was running. I'm pretty sure my om617s run smooth than this thing!

When I took a look at the engine bay I found that the water pump had nearly failed and the tensioner shock was on its way out as well.

My buddy got the water pump replaced but didn't have the parts and the car was needed by the end of the week.

So yesterday we went for a ride in it and its still pretty bad. I shot some videos of it and thought I'd post them. I havent had a chance (or the car in front of me) to pull/check codes.

In retrospect these videos might not reveal much. Theres a lot of wind noise from the fan. I also didnt realize the 4,000 rpm limiter existed.
