If you want to replace your failed engine dampers you can purchase from the following sites:

Cam Belt (R.H) side Engine Damper OE Part Number: 82323829

http://faparkes.epicoriscala.com/Default.aspx

FA Parkes Stock Code: 42787
Supplier stock code is: 2611YY

Use the Search facility and use the Supplier (Stabilus) Stock Code 2611YY as the criteria.


Gearbox (L.H) side Engine Damper OE Part Number: 82323831

Use Ebay and search under item number: 250836085717

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MERCEDES-200-300-C-E-G300-DIESEL-ENGINE-BELT-DAMPER-/250836085717?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a66feebd5&_uhb=1#ht_2130wt_922



The only modification you have to make is to drill out the damper mounting bushes from M8 to M10 - This can be done with a SHARP 10mm drill bit and a decent drill.  Let the ally bush cool after 30 seconds of drilling and repeat until you have drilled right through the bush.

Yes,  I have these fitted to my S2/FL and have had no issues.

There were approximately 26 other forum members that used these when I did the "group buy" so maybe others who have fitted them can provide some feedback (if they have actually fit them that is)  Grin

Yes, I had the dampers fitted while the CV boots were being changed for the MOT. Both old dampers were seized solid. The new ones made a noticable difference to drivability. They had to be packed out with washers as the bushings are narrower that on the originals.

I had drilled them out as above, but it took ages with my DIY drill & admittedly cheap drill bits.
