1984 126 300SD Courtesy Dome light misbehaving
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?

84 300td wagon rough tranny but not tranny
wagon shifts hard when i give it throttle, but when i ease into the throttle then it shifts better. Also when I am up to speed, which I named my wagon "0 to 60 in 5 minutes", I loose power; a lot of power. then all of a sudden it picks back up. Any advice?

93 190E ABS light on and off
Good afternoon,
first let me say that I recently found out about this site and I'm very happy that I did cause you guys have great line of products.
I just ordered the tune up kit for my 190E and looking forward to order some more parts.
however, the reason for this post is that I was wondering if you guys would know why the ABS light on my 190E randomly goes on and off.
I have a 1993 190E 2.6L and since I've got the car, this problem has always been there. Also I notice that every time the ABS light goes on, that the engine loses some power.

1981 300CD Brake Dragging still w/ new caliper
Aloha guys,
Back brake started dragging intermitantly for about a month, replaced both back calipers. Now it's worse! I can't even make it a mile before it's egg fry hot. Had to pry the caliper off, could not get the piston to return until I pulled the brake line off, then it went in smoothly.
Is there a valve or obstruciton preventing fluid return? It's only the back passenger side. I'm ready to disable the back brakes if I can't figure this out!
Thanks

a/c
I just did an engine swap in a 92 300sd. Removed the 3.5L and put in a 3.0L. It purrs like a kitten!! That's not good enough for the wife, she needs her A/C too. Because I had unhooked everything what exactly do I need to replace to get this baby cold? I know one of the items is the dryer was there anything else?

1984 300 TD tank strainer?
Did my wagon have a tank strainer on the fuel tank outlet when it left the factory? It doesn't appear to have one now and from what I've found doesn't look like the pictures in the manuals I've seen. I'm going to clean the tank and was curious. There appears to be drain plug midway in the tank. Is that really what it is?
Thanks.

1983 300SD Sunroof for 126
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!
