I have no experience with that specific model, but I have changed motor mounts on several Mercedes over the years, not to mention a few other cars. These are general procedures that are involved.



Support the engine firmly (either with an engine hoist and a chain, or on one or two hydraulic or scissor type jacks with broad heads or cups at the top (not just a narrow piston jack). Do not place the jack under or wrap the chain from the hoist around the oil pan as it is not designed to bear the weight of the engine.



Now loosen the bolts on all of the motor mounts some to provide you with some %26quot;play.%26quot; You may also have to loosen some tranmission mounts for this purpose. Then you can slowly jack up the engine a bit to take the load off of the motor mounts. While you are doing this either stop periodically or have a friend watch as you jack the engine, but in some way make certain that you are not straining electrical connections, bending exhaust header pipes, and so on, while you are lifting the engine off of the mounts. Sometimes it is necessary to disconnect the exhaust at the collector pipe to get enough rise without crushing the exhaust up against the floor pan or the frame.



Once you have enough clearance you can remove the motor mounts and replace them, and then lower the engine back into place. Then tighten all of the bolts up and reconnect anything you had to disconnect to allow the engine to move.How to change a motor mount of slk 230?
