Does a Mercedes C200 have a Cambelt?
Answered by CarsGuide. I’ll assume you’re talking about a C200, Kevin, which was the most popular Benz model with a 200 in its name back in those days. The good news is that, no, that engine doesn’t need a timing belt change.
Does Mercedes C Class have timing belt or chain?
While not all vehicles use timing chains, most Mercedes-Benz vehicles (especially those powered by higher-displacement engines such as the C-Class) do.
Where does the timing belt connect to the camshaft?
In the internal combustion engine application the timing belt or chain connects the crankshaft to the camshaft(s), which in turn control the opening and closing of the engine’s valves.
What should timing be for worn cam chain?
First, with the worn chain installed I checked the cam timing. Then I installed the new chain and rechecked the timing. In the table below you can see the intake cam timing was retarded by 6.625° and the exhaust by 9.50° when compared to the new cam chain timing values.
What kind of cam belt does a Mercedes have?
Every single Mercedes engine has a chain cam until MB started using Renault 1.5 diesel engines in the Citan and A-Class, and that is still the only belt cam engine.
Is there a chain cam on a Mercedes?
It doesn’t have one. Every single Mercedes engine has a chain cam until MB started using Renault 1.5 diesel engines in the Citan and A-Class, and that is still the only belt cam engine.

Can a timing belt be replaced with a timing chain?
The timing belt is commonly found in cars and SUVs with smaller displacement engines. When an engine has a larger bore and stroke, most automotive manufacturers utilize a timing chain system that replaces the rubber belt with a metal chain. Generally, timing chains last longer than timing belts, with some rated to last the lifetime of the car.
What happens when the camshaft position sensor does not work?
3. Vehicle will not start The camshaft position sensor gathers information about the vehicle’s camshaft speed and sends it to the vehicle’s engine control module (ECM). The ECM uses this data to determine the timing of the ignition, as well as the timing of the fuel injection that the engine requires.
