For all M112 and M113 gas engines with leaking breather chamber covers on top of engine If you own a 1998 to 2006 Mercedes with a V6 (M112) or a V8 (M113) engine this is one job you will have to deal with at some point. Just pull the top cover off your engine and look. Even cars with low mileage may have oil seeping out the breather covers on the top of the heads. Doing a proper reseal on these covers is not hard but it is tedious if you don't want them to leak again. This is one job if you want it done right you should consider doing it yoursel!!!
Even more so than needing the correct sealant, you will need to make sure the sealing surfaces are ABSOLUTELY clean of any dirt, oil, or moisture BEFORE you apply the new CORRECT sealant. This kit contains supplies and instructions on how to do just that.
