Campaign No. 2006110007, December 2006FILE:
SERVICE: GROUP 00 OF SERVICE INFORMATION BINDER

TO: ALL MERCEDES-BENZ CENTERS
SUBJECT:
MODELS 211, 219 MODEL YEAR 2007
CHECK ROUTING OF BRAKE LINES AND INSTALL CHAFING PROTECTION IF NECESSARY
This Service Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that on affected vehicles (see VIN range) tolerance deviations may have occurred in the installations of the brake lines which can lead to minimal chafing of the brake lines on the fender liner. The dealer will check the brake line routing and install chafe protection if necessary.
Please review the Effective Serial Number chart located on the following page, and if necessary, repair the subject vehicles during the vehicle's next service.
Prior to performing this Service Campaign:
- Please check VMI to insure the vehicle is involved and to determine if the vehicle has been previously repaired.
- Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin.
Approximately 979 vehicles are affected.
Effective Serial Number Range
NOTE:
Every vehicle in the VIN range may not be included in the campaign. VMI must always be checked before performing campaigns to verify that the campaign is required on a specific vehicle. VMI always overrides the bulletin in reference to a specific vehicle's inclusion in a particular campaign. Please also note that Recall and Service Campaigns do not expire and may also be performed on a vehicle with a vehicle status indicator.
Procedure
1.Check distance between brake lines (A, Figure 1) and body panel (B) at all three brake lines near the ABR hydraulic unit, as shown in Figure 1.
- If distance is 5 mm or greater, this campaign has been completed.
- If distance is less than 5 mm, proceed to next step.
2. Install chafing protection (A, Figure 2) on all three brake lines.
- Gently pull brake lines away from body panel to install protection.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the brake lines.
- Face openings in chafing protection towards front, as shown in Figure 2.
