I parked my car to fill it with WVO and when I went to start it the engine would not turn over. All the lights come on but there is not even a click to indicate the solenoid is activated. I would like to know if there is a relay that may be faulty? Thanks
I have been experiencing a couple of problems with the AC. One was the compressor clutch "cooked itself" resulting in it being replaced. After it was replaced I noticed the aux fan was not ever coming on and the clutch still has moments where it is not completely engaging and is partially engaged resulting in it heating up. I have troubleshot the aux fan down to the resistor used for a slower aux fan speed. It appears to be open and should be replaced. Could the failing of the aux fan cause the slipping of the clutch and how difficult is it to replace the resistor?
Thanks
Hey guys,
My dome light (one right above the rear-view mirror) will not come on (in any of the positions) when the doors are opened in the car. The door lights that are on the bottom of the doors do operate as expected so I suspect the switches that detect the open door are working. I can turn the light on by rolling the knob to the "on" opsition. Is it safe to assume that the platic light assembly needs to be replaced? Can I clean the contacts? Is it two different bulbs?
Husband did a valve adjustment a week ago and the car idles really nice. Problem? Now, we have very little power, slow acceleration and the transmission will not downshift even with pedal pressed to the floor whether driving on flat street or going uphill. Help!!!
Many of us with older turbodiesels are just plain tired of having to replace the air cleaner bracket, and especially the mounts that hold the air cleaner in place. I've found a possible alternative that COMPLETELY REPLACES THE ENGINE MOUNTED FILTER HOUSING AND BRACKET with a K&N filter on the end of an intake tube attached directly to the turbo inlet.
The rules prevent me from including a link to another website, but I suppose the rules do not prevent stating the other source. It's Wade Performance Products.
I am trying to buy my first 1984 300 SD, and I don't know what is most important to be aware of to make a final judgment of whether to buy or not. Can you give me some advice?
The sunroof has worked just fine for the 5 years I've owned my 300SD, but two days ago the sunroof began to malfunction. It opens just fine, but now when it closes, the rear portion no longer jumps back up to make a flush seal with the roof.
Some other boards suggested that a plastic guide channel or rail may be damaged, but I don't know as of yet.
Please help!

1989 Mercedes benz 300SE the seatbelt light that looks like airplane buckle up symbol now blinks constantly this is really weird could someone help me?
I have an 84 300sd which I can't do anything to settle down the shaky engine during the rough idle. I ran 3 cans of diesel purge and that seemed to help while running Diesel Purge, but when back on WVO or diesel, the engine starts shaking. Is time to clean the injectors? What am I missing?
Air, fuel filters are new. Valve adjustment done. What next?
Thanks!
