1. Product Features

2710501400 is a genuine Mercedes-Benz engine timing gear, designed for precise valve timing control. Key features include:

• High-precision manufacturing: CNC-machined for smooth gear engagement and reduced wear.

• Premium material: Made of high-strength alloy steel or sintered metal, heat-treated (e.g., carburizing and quenching) for enhanced wear and fatigue resistance.

• Optimized tooth profile: Uses involute gear teeth to minimize noise and improve transmission efficiency.

• Surface treatment: Some models may feature plating or phosphating for rust prevention.

• OEM standard: Complies with Mercedes-Benz OE specifications for perfect engine compatibility.

2. Product Advantages

• Extends engine life: Ensures precise timing, reducing abnormal wear between valves and pistons.
• Improves fuel efficiency: Optimizes valve timing for better combustion efficiency.
• Reduces noise & vibration: Precision gear meshing minimizes engine operation noise.
• Reliability & durability: OEM quality, more durable than aftermarket alternatives.
• Perfect compatibility: Designed specifically for certain Mercedes-Benz engines, ensuring seamless installation.

3. Product Functions

• Synchronizes crankshaft & camshaft: Ensures valves open/close at the correct time, preventing engine damage.

• Power transmission: Transfers crankshaft power to the camshaft to drive the valvetrain.

• Maintains engine performance: Directly impacts power output, fuel economy, and emissions control.

• Handles high-RPM conditions: Maintains stable performance even at high speeds.

4. Installation & Usage Precautions

• Pre-installation check: Ensure the new gear is undamaged and inspect related components (timing chain/belt, tensioner, guide pulley) for wear.
• Timing marks alignment: Must strictly follow the service manual to align timing marks—misalignment can cause severe engine damage.
• Torque specifications: Use a torque wrench to tighten bolts to the manufacturer’s specified value (e.g., XX Nm).
• Professional installation recommended: Certified technicians should perform the replacement using special tools (e.g., timing lock tool).
• Regular maintenance: Recommended inspection interval: 80,000-120,000 km or 5-7 years (depending on driving conditions).
