Would it be possible to pull the clock apart from the tachometer/clock combo out of any W124 300E (or any other W124 for that matter) and cobble it together with the correct tachometer from my 1992 300D?
Can they be separated? And if so are the different models' clusters compatible in this way?
I bought some four inch speakers to replace my fronts, but they are too large as the tweeter disallows the grille from fitting on and only one screw hole fits. I believe the speaker size is R100, as in 100mm. I have not been able to find these anywhere, even Crutchfield's overpriced offerings. Has anyone been able to find some upgraded speakers that will fit? I'm not looking for high power handling or anything, just something that will fit reasonably and handle a modest modern radio/CD player.
I was closing up the manual sunroof on me old'81 300TD wagon and as I was twisting it to latch, the handle snapped off into my hand. Roof is closed but not raised at the back edge. Hmmm... anybody had this happen and had it fixed or better yet fixed it themselves? Not sure where to start- all advice welcomed on this! And thanks in advance! Diesel Don. I love the motor, not the sunroof!
My 300D wouldnt turn off after doing oil and gas filter change..I knocked off a vacuum line..but i tried cutting off engine with the red stop button located ion engine compartment and it didnt functio...any help with that?
Will front seats from an 82 300d fit into an 85 300d without any modifications?
Hi all. My car is running sweet with one minor flaw. After driving at highway speed, 60-75 mph, when I get off and hit the light at the end of the exit ramp the car idles rough. Then I drive around town for a while and the idle smooths out and it runs normally again. I plan on doing a valve adjustment as soon as my wrenches are delivered and I am hoping that is it. Has anyone experienced this and can they confirm I heading in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
I'm going to try this question again. My 79 240D just got a new (used but better than it had) engine.
The engine starts good when cold (20 degrees now) and has good power for it's age.
I'm running Schaeffers 9000 series 10/30 synthetic. Had good luck with this oil in other diesels we own including old dodge cummins, and our new 09 volks 2.0 tdi.
And maybe what it's doing is no big deal, but it doesn't seem right.
I am new to the diesel benz world. I am having problems with water getting in trunk and on interior floors. I have ordered new trunk seal as well as all door seals. Is there another secret or spot water can get in? Please help. Thank you
I would like to replace my rear shocks and front struts with Bilstein. Should I use the Comfort or the Heavy Duty? I drive mostly freeway miles. Thank you.

as if things couldn't possibly get worse from what they are. I just bought a can of engine starter at autozone, the guy there told me if i sprayed it in the intake and the car started it need glow plugs... well i did what he said and soon after my car started and ran. since my car set about a week without running i went and drove it about 5 mile when it started overheating.
