Mercedes GLK220 CDI/d Injector Seal & Timing Chain Wear (OM651)
If your GLK220 CDI/d has the OM651 2.1-litre diesel — that's the X204 generation, produced from 2008 to 2015 — injector seal leaks and timing chain/tensioner wear are well-documented patterns on this engine, shared across the C-Class family and backed by multiple manufacturer technical service bulletins. We replace the timing chain, injector seals and gaskets as standard on every OM651 rebuild.

Every GLK220 CDI D is different. That's why we offer the right solution for your engine, your car and your budget.
REBUILDING YOUR GLK220 CDI D ENGINE
We rebuild the engine your GLK220 CDI D already has instead of selling you a used engine of unknown history — strip it down, pressure-test it, and replace every worn or damaged component (timing chains, bearings, water pump, gaskets) with updated OEM parts. Near-new performance with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty.

ABOUT THE MERCEDES GLK220 CDI D ENGINE
The GLK220 CDI/d is the diesel mainstay of the GLK-Class range, produced from 2008 to 2015 across the single-generation X204 chassis. It uses the OM651 2.1-litre inline-four diesel — an engine shared widely across Mercedes models of that era, including the C-Class and E-Class families. The GLK-Class was discontinued in 2015 and succeeded by the GLC, but we continue to rebuild and replace engines for every one still on the road.
We continue to rebuild and replace M256 engines for every GLK220 CDI D on the road.
MERCEDES GLK220 CDI D ENGINE CODES
M256 (R190, 2023–present)
A 3.0-litre inline-six petrol mild-hybrid engine fitted to the GLK220 CDI D from 2023 to present. The M256 features an integrated starter-generator (ISG) and electric auxiliary compressor, making it a more modern and efficient design than the older M276 V6. We replace timing chains, bearings, water pump and gaskets as standard on every M256 rebuild.
Check Your M256 GLK220 CDI DMERCEDES GLK220 CDI D ENGINE COMPATIBILITY
Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm:
Your exact engine code (M256) via registration or VIN
Your generation (R190)
Drivetrain and ancillary specification
Any electronics or ECU considerations specific to your exact build
This is why we always start with your registration rather than a generic GLK-Class quote — it protects you from paying for parts that don't fit your actual car.
