Just replaced and tryed adjusting rear brake shoe assembly with new rotors...Now, the car does not back up or feels like it is rolling up onto something. Not sure if I adjusted the star gear properly. I know there is a balance, but this is getting frustrating. The E-Brake pedal inside the car does not get enough resistant/stiff when pedal is pushed down. It releases fine/quick.
I recently changed the fluid and filter for the automatic transmission in my 1980 300D. I'm not sure how many versions of the fluid pan Mercedes made, but mine has a drain plug that screws in to the pan through the filler line. The plug has opennings in it that allow the fluid to pass through to fill the pan. I cleaned everything well and replaced the aluminum washers with new copper ones, so I was surprised to find it leaking. I was thinking about putting a thin layer of RTV on the washers to improve the seal, but was wondering if there are any other fixes I could try first.
so...just replaced my radiator, all hoses and the thermostat (all mercedes source parts)...putting the hoses back on and when i go to the this hose that goes from the top left of the radiator to the top of the coolant reservoir, as i was tightening the clamp, the plastic nipple of the radiator snapped off...do i need to buy a new new radiator now, or can it be epoxied and still used???...any recommendations on the specific glue to use???...
really bummed at my mistake, came down to a lack of presence in the final moments...thanks for your support!
I have a 81 240D automatic that does not have a EGR or a multi pin plug. There are some lines that were not connected and need a diagram. My car doesn't have one and all the other ones that I can find have both EGR and multi pin plug. can you help I don't know if this will help but here are a few pic.
Thanks Lisa

There is oil clogging the air filter. There is a product called Envalve, that fits on the valve cover to remedy this problem. Do you know of this product? I understand that the rings are worn creating this problem, is this engine on its way out or is there something else I can do to extend it's life? Thanks
