No, not at all. I had the same discrepancy in my 83 300 TD although that
car had the transmission replaced with one from a 1985 300d. I always
assumed that the mismatched transmission might have had something to do
with the speedometer being inaccurate.

Does the needle jump up and down (wiggle)?

If not, then no, it is not the cable.

[MBZ] W126 speedometer inaccuracy

2023-04-22 Thread Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes
I observed that my '85 300SD speedometer is about 10% below the actual
vehicle speed, starting at 45 mph and above.

I recently had the odometer repaired but the tech was unable to explain the
discrepancy.  Any suggestions?  There are no records of the po having
worked on this.  Could this be an issue with the speedometer cable?

Other than the godawful tedium of the color scheme, there are no obvious
issues.  The '85 models seldom have rust from my experience, and the
engines are indestructible.  If you buy it I can advise on repair issues
and parts availability.

I actually set one up and uploaded a bunch of vids on various cars but I’m 
completely ignorant of editing and so I guess watching them would be kinda 
sucky. I need to take the time to learn to do that and get them polished up and 
loaded. My daughter’s BF does that for a living (engineer and general doer at a 
TV station) but I don’t think he has a big urge to do it when he gets home. I

[MBZ] 2007 C280 - 92k miles - $3,900

2023-04-22 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
Rusty, and accoring to the Mercedes Medic, although it's not a "350" these M272 
engines could have the bad balance shaft parts.

Probably more like a $2K car depending on extent of rust and whether the engine 
is a newer one.

Wonder what the recall is? I guess with the VIN one could find out. Why not get 
it fixed, esp. if you're going to be selling the car? Looks clean and I like 
the color scheme but seems a little overpriced.

There's an injury lawyer in town that has one of those, or something similar. 
He likes to cruise around downtown on Sundays drawing attention.

That's some serious rust around the rear window. Expect the interior to be full 
of water. Extra 5 in the price.

With the level of rust it has, and the location of the rust, it isn't worth 
repair. Parts car.

A buddy bought one of these back in the early 90s and it turned out a 
lot of the parts on the car were straight Chrysler bits and were readily 
available for pretty cheap if he cross-referenced the Chrysler/Maser 
part, or took it in and found it on the shelf
