I own W124 230TE but the sls is not working for the last 6 month or maybe more, i try sending it to the workshop but end paying more $$$ but still no success, end up the system getting worst, i check & found the actcuator & the adjusting valve broken & missing. Now it just on the coil spring, with 2 adult seating at the rear the whole back sink down, the problem here is very difficult to get the part localy (Singapore)& costly to import the part.
I need more amperage for all the various electric stuff, including fuel heaters, in my car. I have read that the 89 Saab 900S (bosch AL129X) 115A alternator is a direct replacement for my standard MB unit. Does this work? Is there another alternator that will work? Thanks - Steven
The fuse that controls the horns, ignition buzzer and backup lights on my 1984 300TDT Wagon always blows. Not immediately, but eventually. Cannot relate it to any action of mine. The backup lights were broken with loose connectors, rust and corrosion, so were replaced with new ones.
Should I check or disconnect the horns and see if that cures the problem? Any suggestion as to where to start?
Hello , I am writing to find out how much difference there is between a 1980 300td wagon vs a 1983 300d sedan when it comes to pick up. I intend to use traditional diesel and am looking for a daily driver in the ny 5 boro area much of which will be highway driving with short on ramps. I have leads on a beautiful 80 wagon but am concerned that its not a turbo and have heard they are sluggish, i guess i am looking for a definition of sluggish.Thanks in advance from a relative newbie-T
It is extremely difficult to turn the fan blower speed switch on my 1981 240D. If i pull off the plastic knob, I can turn the switch with a pair of pliers but still with great difficulty. Any thoughts on what could be binding and how to resolve the situatioin?
Interesting problem. I have a 81 300 d non turbo. Heat works fine when driving around town in a city type speeds. Temp stays right around 80 degrees Celsius. When I get on the expressway, at roughly 55 mph it cools off after about a minute. Temp gauge still reads 80ish. I added some cardboard behind the grill still with no improvement. I'm currently running diesel in it even though I have a Lovecraft waste oil kit. Any help would be great. It's going down to negative numbers tonight here in MI so it should be a cold ride to work in the morning. Thanks in advance.

when using the paper towel method to time the injector pump am I looking for the first drop of fuel to appear in the valve or do I let it fill up?
When you replace the transmission modulator valve does it pop straight out or do you have to unscrew? I don't want to cause any problems by removing wrong.
