Yesterday, suddenly, the rear left door of my 1984 300D would open only half way. (Bad) Today, I see a beautiful door check strap for the 123 is on sale! (Good) But it's only for front doors. (Not so good) Do you stock a door check strap for rear doors? Thanks. Jim Norman
Last year my parents bought me a 1977 240d with a 300d engine. I love the car because of its old style and drove it for about 4 months before pools of coolant started to appear under my car. I am wanting to fix my car now that my dad recently passed away and i need to know if anyone could help me by finding out what the cause is. I have had people tell me its a freeze plug behind the engine. All can tell is that its leaking between the engine and transmission. if anyone could answer this for me i would appreciate it and i would know that i must purchase a freeze plug.
I have a set of injectors that came off a 300 turbo diesel and I was wondering if they would work in a non turbo engine?
Just wondering what the difference would be in the two.
Thank you

As I continue my quest for perfect 617 Diesel Injectors & truth I have just learned today that I need to have the internal surfaces of my injectors lapped to remove grime & build-up. . .
Is this something I can do myself (lapping the surfaces) if I take on the task of re-building my 617 injectors w/new Monark nozzles?
How would I do this?
thank you & Happy New Year,

The noise is usually not noticable at an idle or at higher speeds.The noise is also almost always not noticable when running SVO.When I switch back to deisel the noise takes awhile to occur.
I just bought a 79 300d. The front wheels are 'kicked out' at the bottom. I think it has to be a front end issue........but I can't find anything loose. Anyone with experience with this chassis have any ideas of where I should be looking?
I have a 1980 240D sedan with an automatic transmission. When I start the car and drive it first thing in the morning, the transmission shift from first to second gear is rough, it snaps my head when it shifts! However, once I have been driving it for about 15- 20 minutes and it's warmed up, the shifting from first to second is much smoother and about the same for the other gears. Is my transmission having a problem, or is this typical for a car of this age?
