6.1 Deactivate easy entry/exit function Vehicles with memory package (driver seat, steering column, mirrors) code 275
NOTES Otherwise the driver seat and steering wheel move into a different position if the driver door is opened or closed for example.
Damage to the upper frame can occur when the SPECIAL TOOL holding device is installed.
 
    IMPORTANT It is switched off using the buttons on the steering wheel in the "Comfort" menu on the multifunction display, see vehicle owner's manual.  
7 Move front wheels to straight-ahead position and secure steering wheel. IMPORTANT To do this, swivel the sun visor to one side and insert the SPECIAL TOOL retainer.
NOTES The steering wheel must not be turned when the steering coupling has been removed. This will damage the fanfare horns and airbag clock spring contact beyond repair.

9 Disconnect plug (2) from SPS solenoid valve (Y10)    
10 Unscrew bolt (25a) of steering coupling (25) at lower steering shaft (80a) IMPORTANT Replace locking plate (25f) with self-locking nut.  
    TORQUE SPECIFICATION *BA46.10-P-1001-01E 
11 Insert suitable tool in the bore of the steering coupling (25) and pull lower steering shaft (80a) upwards out of the steering coupling (25) IMPORTANT Do not counterhold at the rubber boot or at the plastic temperature protection disk for the lower steering shaft (80a). Do not use force (hammer blows, a lot of leverage), if necessary expand clamping groove slightly using a screwdriver.
IMPORTANTInstallation:  When inserting, observe the trunnion of the steering coupling (25) and groove of the lower steering shaft (80a) (arrows).
 
12 Press tie rod joints (10a) out of the steering knuckles MODEL 220 except 220.083 /084 /087 / 183 /184 /187 AR46.40-P-0200-02I

13 Put on engine carrier arm   AR01.10-P-7500-03I
14 Detach both engine mounts from the front axle carrier (1), to do this, unscrew bolts (1g) IMPORTANTInstallation:  The anti-twist locks in the front axle carrier (1) must latch in the retaining grooves of the engine mounts.

15 Raise engine at front lifting eye IMPORTANT Ensure that the rear of the engine does not touch the body.  
16 Detach torque struts (18) on front axle carrier (1) and fold forwards NOTES The hexagon bolt (18a) must not turn. When releasing the nut, it is essential to counterhold the hexagon bolt (18a), otherwise the lock tabs for caster adjustment will be sheared off in the rubber mount.
IMPORTANTInstallation:  Only tighten the hexagon bolt (18a) when the vehicle is in the ready-to-drive condition. The rubber mount in the torque strut (18) must not be assembled under stress.

20 Remove bolts (1f) from front axle carrier (1) IMPORTANT The bolts (1f) are self-tapping, so the following points must be observed:
  • Never  recut the thread in the longitudinal member
  • Replace bolts
  • Use only original bolts (4 x)
  • Do not attach bolts at an angle when screwing in
  • Do not use an impact bolt tightener
  • Observe tightening torque

IMPORTANTInstallation:  Before tightening the bolts (1f), align the front axle carrier (1) on the left and right using drift (a, 14.8 mm diameter).
