Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
Not true, they had the same wiring. Problems may have been less obvious because of the relatively fewer engine sensors and ignition wires that had to run accross the hottest part of the engine, but they were still there. I've heard of a number of new diesel wiring harness installs. Everything I've heard indicated that the biodegradeable wiring was introduced with the M104 in 1993 and the 606 in 1995 (at least here in the US).

Re: [MBZ] 190D status
I trial-fit the new ball joint and got it lined up. While the two pipe sections from the original kit worked well for size, they were together too long to fit into the clamp! I found, though, that I didn't need a pipe on the bottom at all, the adapter flange actually fit the ball joint well enough. I put it all together, hit the wishbone socket with the propane torch for a bit, then cranked on the clamp. The joint just walked right in, no problem. Cool.

Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
I talked to my brother in law last evening about the issue. He is a licenced mechanic and has been for maybe 15 years. He says that ABS problems are fairly common, especially on GM products. He says that a bit of rust or a wheel bearing that is a bit loose can trick the ABS into thinking that the vehicle is sliding and result in the computer kicking in the pump which leaves you with a rock hard pedeal and no brakes. All it requires is for the air gap on the sensor to be too big. He says Chevy pickups commonly have the problem. You can be pulling into your garage, hit the brakes, and darned near run into the back wall because it suddenly feels like no brakes. He has less experience with Toyota and therefore cannot say that the design is similar and that they might have similar issues. He suggests looking into the issues carefully if we get the car back to try and avoid a repeat performance.

Far as I understand ABS systems is that it deactivates at slow speed/zero speed, otherwise the system would always try and let the wheels turn. Further ABS systems have a self diagnostic function that switches the systems off if any variation is detected, or in other words it works 100% or not at all. The only way I can think of, with my limited knowledge, for an ABS system to produce rock hard brakes is that the system has opened the brakes and is stuck there. I would expect that this would cause alarm bells to go off in the diagnostic part. I guess the way to determine if ABS is the problem is to deactivate it and see if the problem persists but the wiser thing is to have the system tested by a pro.

[MBZ] Be careful out there!
Was having coffee in the local Dairy Queen this morning when a car got clobbered by a train at the level crossing just north of the restaurant. Don't know if the flashing lights at the crossing were on. Do try to remember to always look both ways before crossing train tracks. It might save your life some day. Only one woman in the car that got hit. Not quite sure what the vehicle was. I am told it was a VW Passat - maybe a wagon as the back looked chopped off and I don't think it was a Golf. She survived the bang and was taken out of the car by fire and ambulance crews and hauled away. Car withstood the impact fairly well. Hit on the driver's side. Not sure exactly as I did not see the impact. One of the fellows I was with said that black car just spun onto the grass We thought it had been hit by the train.

Re: [MBZ] Obama and political gobbeldegook
it was written Based on your logic, one can reason that the more education one receives, the less likely they are to be a supporter of the Republican Actually, that's not far from the truth.

Not sure why this happens but they seem to want no competition with the dogma they plan to use to indoctrinate the students. Naturally this doesn't happen to everyone and mot everyone is susceptible to this kind of attack but some will turn. And the longer they stay at their institute of higher learning the more likely the student is to consider atheism an appropriate alternative. the attack on conservatism happens at the same time using the same tactics. Some students will have a good understanding of what conservatism consist of as well as the basics of their religion making attacks less successful. There have been instances of students making conservatove arguments getting failing grades from liberal professors. Some students have taped the professors attacks on students and taken legal action against them. I;m afraid the education system is largely made up of liberals just like the media industry so the attack on conservatove values comes from several directions.

Every single person should call their religion into doubt. That way they make a decision for themselves based on evidence and logical arguments. IMO, you aren't truly religious unless you have made a decision for yourself about what your belief system is. Otherwise you're just religious out of habit (ie, you're just following in your parents). Also, I think that your parents/family are doing you a disservice if they don't make you question your beliefs. So what is wrong with your religion being called into doubt? Not sure why this happens but they seem to want no competition with the dogma they plan to use to indoctrinate the students. Its called teaching people to think critically. This is the job of any University. It is still very possible for someone with critical thinking skills who has actively searched for data to be religious.

And the longer they stay at their institute of higher learning the more likely the student is to consider atheism an appropriate alternative. Not being susceptible to an attack of critical thinking sounds like a bad thing to me. And why isn't Atheism an appropriate alternative?

There have been instances of students making conservatove arguments getting failing grades from liberal professors. Some students have taped the professors attacks on students and taken legal action against them. Statistically or anecdotally? In the south the opposite is likely to happen.

Also, there are always jackass professors who will fail students based on *anything* they don't agree on whether it is politics, religion, an interpretation of Shakespeare, the color of the wall, etc. Not saying I agree with it, but it isn't strictly related to religion/politics.

Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
Maybe on braking but my experience would indicate that the weight over the driving wheels helps in other ways. It was similar with the old rear drive VW bugs. They went through snow well. Might have partly been the narrow tires but I believe the weight over the driving wheels helped. Also an issue similar to ABS I think in the sense that one can still steer. The front drive vehicles steer better in snow. The wheels pull the car in the direction one wants to go. Often with rear drive, one would plow straight ahead even if one kept moving with the wheels cranked to the side. That was an issue with my old 2 wheel drive Suburban. Lots of weight so it didn't spin but it was not great at turning. We would get ruts in our back lane and the truck didn't like climbing out of the ruts. Turn the wheel and slide down the rut straight ahead. Had to remember to climb out of the rut at some speed before I got to my garage so that I could turn across the ruts into the garage for parking.

[MBZ] Rust Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!
While replacing a headlight wiring harness I found something I thought my 91 didn;t have - rust. The sheetmetal behind the headlight on the passenger side (below the air filter) appears to have been repaired following a fender bender. I suspect the fender and headlight unit was replaced but the horizontal sheetmetal looks to have gotten the Bondo treatment. It was covered with paint and looked like huge welds under the paint - a few taps with a screwdriver and a hole appeared. So, I'm not sure what to do - nothing (which I'm leaning to) after putting some anti-rust on it - or trying to replace it with a small patch panel. I suspect the area will continue to rust if noting is done and there's no gurantee I would find all the rust if I try to replace it with a patch panel. Because of the heavy layer of paint, I cannot reach the rust from the top - working on it from below is always a PITA. Anyone got any experience with this kind of stuff? Suggestions?

Re: [MBZ] Detailing Questions
I just did the Sub's carpets last week, I used hot water and a bit of orange cleaner (like Simple Green but smells good), scrubbed it in hard with a stiff brush, then used a wet/dry shopvac to suck up a lot of the water (did not get it all, still needed to dry in the heat). I suppose you could use the carpet cleaner in a spray bottle or like you put in a machine, but I'm not sure it is anything special (except it doesn't foam up). There are cans of foamy stuff with a brush on it, for upholstery too. Again, I'm not sure that is anything special. Carpets came out pretty good -- my wife likes to spill her coffee so the cream was smelling real good, and most of the brown stains came out. You can probably follow sort of the same procedure with cloth seats, but maybe not use as much water -- maybe a sponge instead of a brush, or a steamer vac that sprays the water right by the nozzle then sucks it right up. Best paint buffer is what you have 2 of! Those powered things kinda scare me, and tend to leave swirl marks. --R Rick Knoble wrote: 3 Quick questions (w/possible Mercedes content :-) ) 1.

Re: [MBZ] buffer
... What is the best buffer to use on the cars paint? I.E. Porter Cable, ect. Dual action, rotary...ect... I have plenty of experience with this and my opinion is, the Porter Cable random orbital buffer using a foam pad will be what you need. There are pads made for polishing and pads made for waxing but I've found for waxing a good supply of cloths of the proper material work well. If your paint has been neglected then expect the first time to take a while but the time and effort will pay off. After that, keeping it that way will be much easier. You can go to www.griotsgarage.com to look at the various materials but I bought the Porter Cable kit they sell from a tool outfit in New England for about 25% less. I am still a fan of their other products and use them all the time, what with two garage queens to maintain compulsively. RLE ** Pt...Have you heard the news?

Re: [MBZ] Obama and political gobbeldegook
Okay, I've gotta call bullshit here. When Obama spoke in Jefferson, there was NO teleprompter. He gave a good speech (no doubt memorized) but then answered audience questions for a half hour. He didn't stumble, he didn't freeze up -- he talked just like he did from what was obviously a prepared text. Like him or not, this guy knows his stuff and doesn't need to pull out note cards to talk. He didn't talk in generalities, he spoke in facts and figures and programs.

Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
my experience would indicate that the weight over the driving wheels helps in other ways. It was similar with the old rear drive VW bugs. They went through snow well. Might have partly been the narrow tires but I believe the weight over the driving wheels helped. Click 'n' Clack tested a FWD Honda (Accura?) against an old RWD land yacht. The yacht kicked the Honda's butt. Their conclusion? Weight. It's all about weight. FWD is only useful because cars that are made lighter need the extra weight over the drive wheels. Very best winter traction is with my pickup truck. Carrying the camper. Some 3000# of weight makes _such_ a difference.

Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
FWD cars have better drive traction in the snow only because most of the weight is above the drive tires. But they have worse steering traction because some of the steering tires traction is already being used for drive traction. FWD was almost universally adopted by the auto industry, not because its better, but because its cheaper. Then the marketing gurus took over and started the better on ice, snow and rain myth. You'll note that Mercedes never signed up - they know better. Also, the best car on snow was and still is the old VW bug. The engine is over the drive wheels, giving great traction and the steering tires are free to do what they are supposed to do - steer!

Re: [MBZ] What would you buy now?
Also, the best car on snow was and still is the old VW bug. The engine is over the drive wheels, giving great traction and the steering tires are free to do what they are supposed to do - steer! My parents had one, and there's a killer hill to get up to on the way to their house. A 90-degree turn (stop) at the bottom of a steep hill, followed by a long sweeping turn at the top and up another hill. The bug always did about the best. They may have put sand in the rear too. However, its average score as a winter car is lowered, and considerably, by its pathetic excuse for a heater/defroster. I also believe the FWD reputation is largely myth, and I certainly don't like the way it handles. So the butt end of RWD gets a bit squirrely in the snow, so what?
