Hi Malcolm,
In theory, not much more. It has the ML5 'box with a cable operated gearchange and the hydraulic clutch. These items it shares with the 2.1TD and the 110 HDi. The BoL is slightly conversant with this clutch and gearbox under its 2.1TD guise.
You have to make sure the piston and pushrod does not fall out of the clutch slave cylinder by tying them up with cable ties but apart from that, not too much different from doing a BE3 'box clutch change really except the ML5 is a bigger and heavier 'box.

But... Haynes suggests that you do not engage the release bearing with the cover plate before mating the box, instead you fit the release bearing to the fork in the bellhousing, refit the box, then have to make up a t-bar tool to insert in the slave cylinder hole, engage with the release bering then yank backwards to engage the release bearing snap ring in the pressure plate. Nice
Book time for an HDi with ML5 box is eight hours....
