Fitment on a used inlet manifold varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
All petrol-engined ML models have an inlet manifold, and diesel ML models also have an inlet manifold — though the design differs significantly between petrol and diesel variants. Because the ML was offered with a range of both petrol and diesel engines across its generations, the key thing is to identify your exact engine code rather than just the fuel type. Never assume a petrol manifold will suit a diesel engine or vice versa.
The W163 (1997–2005) and W164 (2005–2011) are completely different generations with different engines, engine mounting arrangements, and ancillary layouts, so an inlet manifold from one generation will not cross over to the other. Even where the engine displacement sounds similar across generations, the engine codes are different and the manifold designs do not interchange. Always match by engine code, not by engine size or generation alone.
The W164 received a facelift in 2008, and while the core engines largely carried over, there can be mid-production changes to ancillary and mounting details that affect whether a manifold from an earlier car will fit a later one. You should confirm with the breaker by providing your registration or full engine code so they can check their part against your specific build. Sharing your VIN or V5 engine code gives the breaker the best chance of matching correctly.
Trim level does not affect which inlet manifold a Mercedes-Benz ML uses — the manifold follows the engine code, not the specification level. An ML Sport and an ML SE sharing the same engine code will use the same inlet manifold. Focus your search on matching the engine code rather than the trim name.
The engine code is the single most important detail for matching an inlet manifold, as it identifies the exact engine variant rather than just the badge or displacement. You can find your engine code on your V5 registration document or by running a VIN check through a reputable online service. Provide this code to your breaker when requesting a quote, as it allows them to confirm compatibility far more reliably than the model year or trim level alone.
The W166 (2011–2019) is a later generation with its own engine family, and inlet manifolds from this generation are not interchangeable with those from the earlier W163 or W164. Even engines with similar displacements across generations use different manifold designs, mounting points, and sometimes different induction systems entirely. Confirm the engine code from both vehicles with your breaker before purchasing any used part.
