I found no repair Manuals and/or Diagnostic Guides to diagnose my AC/Heater and Tach problem. My heater does not come on when I want it to come on. Most of the time, nothing. I would press the buttons on the climate control and hear contacts, I would roll the temp setting wheel and hear contacts in AC as well in heating. I have source parts and like to repair it myself. I am willing to do a rebuilt, if possible. The Tach either jump around or does not work or works normally, mostly jumps around. This bothers me
I am a happy and a week old newbe owner of No rust (I really mean no rust), cream puff, low milage (225,000 KM) original, mint MB 1982 300 CD TD. It was a lucky find. This is my first MB and diesel car. The car looks and drives like a 3-4 year old car, not a 25+ car. My goal is to keep it looking and running this good for another 25yrs.
