Mercedes V300 Exclusive Oil Leaks & Coolant System Wear (M256 I6)

The M256 is a sophisticated 3.0-litre inline-six with an integrated starter-generator and electric auxiliary compressor — 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.

Because the V300 EXCLUSIVE uses a completely different engine family from the V8 M178 fitted to the Vito 63 and GT 63 S, parts and rebuild specifications don't cross over between them.

Source: Established M256 specialist pattern — timing chain, bearing and gasket wear across integrated-starter-generator inline-six units.

Mercedes V300 ExclusiveENGINE OPTIONS

Every V300 EXCLUSIVE is different. That's why we offer the right solution for your engine, your car and your budget.

01MOST POPULAR

REBUILDING YOUR V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINE

We rebuild the engine your V300 EXCLUSIVE 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.

From £3,200
02

RECONDITIONED V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINES

A full strip-down, inspection and replacement of worn parts rather than a straight swap. If that's what you're after, our rebuild service is exactly that.

03

REFURBISHED V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINES

Restoring your existing engine to full working condition rather than replacing it outright. Our rebuild service covers this.

Learn more
04

REMANUFACTURED V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINES

Built to original specification with updated components. That's consistent with what our rebuild service delivers on the M256.

05

REPLACEMENT V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINES

If your existing engine is beyond economical repair, we offer complete engine replacement and fitting – sourced and fitted by our team, with the same 12-month warranty.

06

USED V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINES

Matched low-mileage used engines for when time is critical. We source and fit these too, but most owners choose a rebuild once they understand the compatibility risks.

ABOUT THE MERCEDES V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINE

Mercedes AMG GT 53 engine and sedan

The V300 Exclusive is the top-spec people-mover trim of the Vito range. It uses the OM654 — a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel producing 174kW and 500Nm. This is the same engine family used across the wider W447 Vito range in different states of tune, from the entry-level Vito 114 (100kW/300Nm) up to the V300 Exclusive's flagship output. The V300 Exclusive sits at the top of the current range, and the OM654 is the latest-generation diesel unit powering the 2025-refreshed models.

We continue to rebuild and replace M256 engines for every V300 EXCLUSIVE on the road.

MERCEDES V300 EXCLUSIVE ENGINE CODES

OM654

OM654 (W447)

A 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel fitted to the V300 Exclusive from the 2025 refresh onwards. This is the current-generation engine across the W447 Vito range in various states of tune, with the V300 Exclusive receiving the highest output at 174kW/500Nm.

MERCEDES V300 EXCLUSIVE 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 Vito quote — it protects you from paying for parts that don't fit your actual car.
