Darrell: 1. I used to have "1977 240D" in my signature line but it seems to have gone away. I will have to fix that.
2. It WAS the switch reset. I now remember having to reset that once before but it had totally slipped my mind. A quick push in of the switch (why do they make that so thin and needle-like?) turned off the warning light. ... I am such an optimist that I had already checked the prices for a new master cylinder. 3. I think someone mentioned this before, but WalMart does stock 5-quart jugs of the Truck/SUV Mobil 1. There was some concern on the list (Marshall's name comes to mind) by some that this would only be available in quarts. Bought a 5-quart jug today while I was at WalMart getting my vision checked* and just did an oil change. 5300 miles between changes; probably safe for mostly in-town driving @ 35 mph and below. * = My eyesight is improving for some reason. Left contact went from -1.25 to -.50 & right contact went from -.75 to -.25. I can now see literally to the horizon without any blurring. Perhaps frequent exposure to #2 diesel and Mobil 1 fumes improves visual acuity. My eyes were getting progressively worse when I was driving an Acura. I had my last eye exam about the same time that I got my 240D. Thanks. On 8/20/05, Darrell W.
