Can someone give me some info on what a reasonable cost would be to replace the leaking rear seal on the transmission of this car. I understand that the tranny must be removed so it is not something I can tackle myself. Plus, there are specialized tools etc. required to do the job correctly.
1984 300sd: Need to know vacuum spec. readings other than the'ol 20-23"
from the main vacuum hose.
Does anyone know the readings to:
transmission modulator value= 15-20"?
shutoff valve value= NEED THIS ONE
door actuator value
ignition switch
door check valve at firewall
Are the readings all suppose to be the same? 20-23 in of vacuum
I have Kent's books but do not see vacuum readings at the different branches of different systems aforementioned.
Thanks, Rafe.
When it rains or snow collects on the car, my 85 300SD collects a BIG amount of water in the area behind the driver's seat on the floor. The passenger side (side of the battery tray) is completely dry. The sun roof seals are dry and need replacing. Could that be where the leak is coming from? I read there are drainage holes around the sunroof and they get plugged...? The car is 80% restored after sitting outside for about 13 years. The engine is a factory replacement, but after purchasing it from a wrecked condition, there were no written records of maintainence.
