well did front engine mounts and dampers today.

passenger side not so bad but drivers side was a total PIA!!!

guess MB decided they'd just put every hose all on the same side of the engine so you can't get to anything.

but it's over now. hope i got those little bolts holding the mounts tightened down enough because they were really hard to manuever. the bolts through the mount into the engine support were no problem but those little bolts are almost impossible to get to. glad i had a bunch of different wrenches.. especially my ratcheting closed end wrenches

can't really tell much difference in how the car feels. engine still has a mild shake the shakes the car.

guess i'll have to go somewhere for more diagnostics. dealer said they can put it on scope and see what it shows as far as ignition problems etc.
