PLEASE NOTE In stock now and ready to ship. No detailed instructions at this time, but it is not a difficult install this unit once you remove the false firewall at the back of the engine. You will be able to gain access to the monovalve and electric pump assembly.
In this instructional video, Kent demonstrates how easy it is to install the Klima heater control valve ( monovalve replacement ). If you have one of these popular and classic Mercedes, this is the best upgrade you can make for your climate control.
This an instructional "how-to" video that comes with our ACCIII performance upgrade it. It will show you how to install a protective fuse for your auxillary water pump and how to replace the rotton foam climate control hose under your dash. Total run time is 16:29.
This universal 13/16-inch spark plug socket comes with a 3-inch extension. On some V8s, you have very limited room to get to the rear sparkplugs. You can add another extension for open access to bring the ratchet wrench out in the open.
Maybe your non-turbo automatic shifts just a little too early or a little too late? Maybe your turbo diesel transmission jerks a little too much or flares during shifts?
In this video Kent will show you how to remove the center wood panel and the climate control switch panel so you can replace the 5 small bulbs behind it that light up the switch panel and the buttons behind it. It is not as difficult as it may first appear if you understand the procedure.
This 8-minute on-demand video will show you how Kent uses the Super 3M trim adhesive to glue dash and center wood pieces in a W123. The principles apply to other models as well as almost any loose rubber piece on any car.
Since the original style Bosch electric water pumps are no longer available NEW. If you need a replacement pump, you have three options. 1. Buy a used pump. 2. Buy our newer pump conversion upgrade. 3. Take your inoperable pump out of the system.
This is probably the very best upgrade you can make for your automatic climate control. It will switch the hot to cold or cold to hot much faster and will hold a much steadier heat at high engine speeds.
Very good condition. Does not have all the corrosion that you see on most of the bulb sockets. If you are have problems with your rear lights staying on this is usually the problem. New bulbs are available separately.
Are you tired of your sluggish heater system? Does it take too long to change temperature. Does it get hot when you want it to get cold.
The parts in this little kit will do two things. 1. Protect your climate control push button panel. 2. The system will get more accurate readings from the climate control sensor on top of your dash.
For years I just used old shop rags to catch the drips - until I found this! What a great solution. Watch the video below for more details
This is one of the nicest I have seen both inside and out. Complete with the attachment through the rear glass hardware. Kent will also include at no extra charge his on-demand video on restoring one of these. This will show you how to remove and replace it in your wagon.
I think well over half of all W123 wagon rear hatch wiper assemblies are either stuck, broken, inoperative, noisy or just won't part properly. The main reason for all these failures is lack of service ( ie lubrication ). It just never gets done.
GREAT for glue on loose rubber, loose wood pieces, and even carpet. The best!
This 10-minute instructional video will show you how to remove the center shift cover wood piece, replace the broken pin in the back, and reinstall the cover back into your W123.
VERY high-quality socket as shown.
Tightens and Removes Collar Nuts on 220D 240D 300D 300CD 300TD 300SD 300SDL 190D 2.2 1969 to 1987. Works on most Mercedes diesel engines up through 1987 only.
Fits all models 1976 to 1985 with a wood shift cover. 240D 300D 300CD 300TD 230E 280E and 280TE. A very common issue that plagues almost all W123s. The factory pin in the back on the wood shift cover seems to always break off, leaving the wood piece loose in the center console.
This kit will not fix all your pump problems. If the motor is worn or burnt out, this won't help. But if the lower impeller is "stuck" due to lack of use and old fuel, then this could be a simple fix. In the video below, Kent will explain what this kit can fix and why it is needed.
Fits all Mercedes models with the 14" Alloy bundt cake style wheels. The measurements are M12x1.5mm by 51mm overall length. This is a set of five USED wheel bolts that are not all rusty.
In this 17 minute instructional video Kent will walk you through removing and installation a VCV valve off the back of the injection pump and the proper way to adjust the linkage travel for best performance. A number of tips will be shared to reduce frustration and prevent problems.
Very good used 189 engine part for 1965 300SE coupe - condition as shown. To see other M189 parts just type "189 engine" in the search box.
Only one is available. Very good used condition. To see our other 189 engine parts just put "189 engine" in the search box.
Brand new - never been mounted. Comes with a new rubber seal for water pump housing. Good used housing from 300SE is also available. I have other 189 engine parts. Please email.
It has now become essential that you replace this filter screen on these old cars, especially if they have been using gasoline with ethanol in it and the car has sat or sits for long periods without running.
Why do you need to do this? Valve clearances are supposed to be adjusted on these early V8s every 10,000 miles. You can imagine why this does not get done! Add to the fact owners can not find the right information or tools and it makes neglect even worse Why not on later model years?
NEW reman as shown. You will need to use the front pulley and fan assembly off your current bad alternator..
Blue in color. Very good condition as shown.
See picture below to compare to original. We think this one works better due to the offset and the longer handle.
Good used working right side mirror and hardware as shown. It is not perfect so if you are looking for show quality then do not purchase. The rubber surround is very good, with no gouges or wear spots. The chome is good, but then is a very small indentation where my finger is pointing below.
This is our most complete FID kit yet. Kent wanted to make sure you would have all the parts you need including hardware.
If you need some good rear axle spare parts here is your chance.
Written in multiple languages including English. Images include reference numbers to easily find the factory part numbers listed. If you have one of these old Mercedes with a 189 engine this is a must-have reference manual.
This old rare manual is like new. Probably never been used. Just a library piece from an old collector. Spotless inside. This has a lot of good information not covered in the 190 Service Manual for the specific models listed in the title. Approximately one and one-quarter inch thick.
If your 560SL key starts to stick, is stuck, and won't turn, or you have lost your key this is your solution. In the first two situations, your lock is probably worn out, and trying to change out the tumbler will not solve the problem.

Please note that this video class is included free with the purchase of one of our steering lock repair services or a new or rebuilt steering lock assembly. Please see related products below.

This was removed from a vehicle and was tested. ONLY ONE KEY but it is the low-security key so easy to get a duplicate made. Very good key movement, good working electrical switch, and door buzzer switch mounted. Fits Early 107 and later W116 chassis only ( see list in title )
In this 14 minute instructional video, Kent will show you how to safely remove the side window lower trim without damaging the car's paint or the soft aluminum trim. He will do this using his special tool to do this job. He will also show you how to install the trim back on without bending it.
This can be one of the hardest trim pieces to remove if you don't want to damage the car's paint or the aluminum trim itself. When working on detailing his 300TD wagon, Kent finally decided it was time to make a special tool for this operation.
Very hard to find with the pull tab intact for the chrome inside handle. Most are broken off. If this mechanism is all corroded you may not even get your hatch open. This one came out of a very clean wagon with no corrosion and the mechanism operates smoothly. Chrome handle not included.
This video ONLY covers some of Kent's "tips and tricks" on installing a harmonic balancer back onto the front of the crankshaft on an old Mercedes engine. The specific procedure was filmed while doing a front crank seal replacement on a 1983 240D.
There are a number of things that can go wrong with a W123 instrument cluster.
In the video instruction, Kent will show you the step-by-step procedure on how to safely remove the instrument cluster from the dash. It will require our special dash pull tools that can be purchased separately.
We starting using some of these to plug brake lines while changing out calipers. Then we started using them on fuel and oil hoses. Now we are using them all over the place and keep finding new uses for them on a monthly basis. These are a MUST HAVE! Watch the video below to become a believer!
On the average W116 300SD nine out of ten times we find these mounts rotten, soft, or collapsed. It is often just due to the age of the rubber. Have you noticed your engine is shaking more at idle? Maybe you are noticing new vibrations that were not there before.
After years of wearing out his shoulder and elbow joints trying to hand polish convertible top windows, Kent finally decided he had to use some fast-action power tool. The idea for this kit and the included tool came from developing and using his aluminum trim polish kit.
