Re: [MBZ] 240d

How bad do you want a convertible? A nice, simple 240D is also rare. Could you flip it and buy a better W124 Cab? Sent from my iPhone > On Feb 17, 2018, at 12:49 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes > wrote: > > Heck I am not sure I want to trade this 240D for that 124

[MBZ] 240d

Got the new tires mounted on the 240d. Drove it for a few miles and it drives great. Even got the ac going. However upon return I smelled burning brakes. RR caliper is dragging. Guess I will swap that out. Sent from my iPhone ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To

Re: [MBZ] 240D

I don't know about high inflation pressure, but I would certainly go out and drive it a bunch more before I gave up on the tires. I almost wonder if lower pressure would permit more flex as I assume these are radial tires. I would not go below minimum pressure but I wonder if maximum would

Re: [MBZ] 240D

Inflate the tires to max sidewall rated pressure, and then drive around for an hour or two, and I'll bet they revert from squares back to circles. - Max Charleston SC On Tue, Feb 13, 2018 at 8:56 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > So the guy with

So the guy with the 124 cab called again today seeming really anxious to swap cars.  I told him maybe Saturday but I want to drive this car for a couple of days to see what else pops up.  I drove it today for a couple of miles, which from what I can tell is the only 2 miles it has been driven

Looks like they would cut off the ends and take the rectangular parts to slip over the metal tabs on the linkage. -D > On Jan 27, 2018, at 8:35 AM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes > wrote: > > Is there a picture of the repair using this part? > > - > Max >

[MBZ] 240D linkage part

Remember the discussion about the bushing for the 240D linkage. Folks on Benzworld say this part will work to replace it.  You have to cut out the bushing part and install it on the leaver. http://www.autohausaz.com/pn/1100720038 --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG.

Re: [MBZ] 240d cooling system flush

Not a good idea IMHO. You could end up with a bunch of dust and dirt in the water. The air filters in the dehumidifiers are not 100%. They are built just like the filters in most window AC units, just a plastic mesh to keep the worst of the dust bunnies from clogging up the evaporator fins.
