I've been trying to look for a thread talking about this issue for my 08 E300 with m272 engine. I guess this is the closest. I have a leak as per the attached pictures (vacuum pump originally installed by Benz with part number 272 230 04 65). I realize this is not the latest as the updated pump is 272 230 05 65. I am really not inclined to change the whole pump. I got the O-ring and I am looking for the gasket seal. Could some one pass me the part number for the gasket seal for this pump?

I have a 2007 C230 with an M272 Engine that has this vacuum pump. Its making noise, leaking oil and my brakes are hard so I will be replacing it. The centrifuge cover is on the other side, the passenger side, I replaced the centrifuge cover and hose while chasing a rough idle but didn't solve the issue, it's a subtle rough idle that comes when the car is cold. After its warmed up, the rough idle only manifests itself in sporadic intermittent single stumbles, like a single shake that feels like the car wants stall. They appear 2-3 times in a 30 minute period idling :confused::confused: The Engine/Transmission mounts are all new so I know that's not it.

Some one in another thread said the vacuum pump replacement solved his rough idle :confused: I guess I will find out. I can't find a vacuum leak anywhere.
Please do come back with your findings so we can all learn from this.

Did you get to change your vacuum pump? Did it fix your rough idle?
