Removing Air intake manifold 2014 GLK350
 

Hi:
I've a 2014 GLK350 4MATIC with the M276 (MB/Chrysler) engine. I cannot get the air intake manifold off to ease a spark plug change because I can't get a socket down into the two bolt recesses that hold the manifold on. These are the ones under the removable plate on top. Perhaps a very thin E socket would do it, but so far no luck finding something thin emough to get in the recesses.


Any help is appreciated!

This is Mercedes way of telling you if this problem stumped you then you probably shouldn't be working on your car.

^LOL

You need 1/4" drive ratchet set, extensions, torx, etc...
