Mercedes Vito 116-124 CDI 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 VITO 116-124 CDI 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 Vito 116-124 CDIENGINE OPTIONS
Every VITO 116-124 CDI is different. That's why we offer the right solution for your engine, your car and your budget.
REBUILDING YOUR VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINE
We rebuild the engine your VITO 116-124 CDI 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 £3,200RECONDITIONED VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINES

Learn moreREFURBISHED VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINES
Restoring your existing engine to full working condition rather than replacing it outright. Our rebuild service covers this.
Learn moreREMANUFACTURED VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINES
Built to original specification with updated components. That's consistent with what our rebuild service delivers on the M256.
Learn moreREPLACEMENT VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINES

Learn moreUSED VITO 116-124 CDI 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 VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINE

The Vito 116-124 CDI is the current diesel range for the W447, a high-volume, current-production commercial vehicle with genuine ongoing demand. The range spans a 2.0L turbo-diesel engine from the entry-level Vito 114 (100kW/300Nm) up to the top-shelf V300 Exclusive (174kW/500Nm). Across the W447 generation, the Vito has used two distinct engines: the OM651 in early models, and the OM654 in the current 2025 refresh range.
We continue to rebuild and replace M256 engines for every VITO 116-124 CDI on the road.
MERCEDES VITO 116-124 CDI ENGINE CODES

M256 (R190, 2023–present)
A 3.0-litre inline-six petrol mild-hybrid engine fitted to the VITO 116-124 CDI 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.

Because the W447 Vito 116-124 CDI range spans two distinct engines, fitting the wrong replacement — or assuming an OM651 part will work on an OM654 van — risks a compatibility problem. Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm: - Your exact engine code (OM651 or OM654) via registration or VIN - Your generation (early W447 or refreshed 2025) - Drivetrain and ancillary specification - Any electronics or ECU considerations specific to your exact build
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.
