Cylinder head

What are the benefits of a Mercedes-Benz Genuine Remanufactured cylinder head?

The remanufactured car cylinder head from Mercedes-Benz is prepared to the same standards of quality as a series production part. This includes, for example, the concentric rotation, the induction-rehardening of the combustion chamber contact surfaces and the fully automatic alignment and adjustment of the valve seat rings. This makes the part every bit as custom-tailored, high-performance and reliable as a new part and ensures optimum compression.

How does the cylinder head work?

In combustion engines, the cylinder head covers the combustion chamber above the pistons and mixes the air and fuel for combustion.

The gap between the cylinder head and engine is covered by the cylinder head gasket.

Depending on whether the vehicle is diesel- or gasoline-fueled, the cylinder head consists of the following components:

• Intake and exhaust valves
• Inlet and outlet ducts
• Camshafts
• Injection valves
• Spark plugs (gasoline engine)
• Glow plugs (diesel)

How to identify a defect:

• Loss of coolant
• Exhaust gas in the cooling system
• Overpressure
• Oil in the coolant
• Coolant in the engine oil
• Large black cloud of smoke from the exhaust pipe when the engine is started
• The engine no longer starts even after the spark plugs have been replaced and with starting assistance
• Rapid increase in engine temperature
