When it finally does get rolling, it still has considerable mass, which
will take serious brakes to decelerate, regardless of how long it took to
build that speed.

Re: [MBZ] Radio works Larry's 300D

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/253485443349

I'd advise you to wait until it gets here so I can make sure it 
works.    The original for the 91 300D 2.5 is 2 piece.   It appears this 
one piece replaces the 2 piece.  No indication of the quality of rubber 
used.   It could be uro via Deutschland.   CC has the lower piece, but 
the top piece is NLA.  There is also a smaller dia 2 piece seal used on 
124s   I have 2 of the small lower parts from a CC order sometime, but 
no top piece.


I can't remember if the ones i had were for the 87 or if they were for 
the wagons.  somehow they shipped 3 lower and one upper, and I used one 
set. so I have the 2 lowers.  I suspect they are orphans, if that top is 
NLA also, they are orphans.   They are for a "normal" antenna hole. The 
91 sedan has a big oval hole, so you can't just stick an aftermarket 
antenna in the hole.   I don't remember moving them so I think they are 
for the 87 sedan.

Re: [MBZ] Radio works Larry's 300D

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

It wasn’t just me. Someone else mentioned you should power up and wait, too…

I think the timer just piles on every time an attempt is made and fails. I seem 
to recall working on a spare radio I had a while back and fat fingering the 
code 3-4 times and it taking it the better part of a day to time out. Glad it’s 
working now.

[MBZ] Radio works Larry's 300D

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Thanks Dan,

Your clue about waiting out the radio was right.   about 4 this 
afternoon, the Wait finally disappeared.  It took the code, and now is 
working.   I believe it was about 26 hours with the ign. on for the 
"wait" to time out.


 Other than the NLA antenna seal, Larry's car is ready to go.  A German 
guy is selling aftermarket seals, so one is on the way.  The license 
plate came Wed, and it is on.   After we drive it and check out 
everything, it will get an oil change and antifreeze change.   Then 
it'll go into regular service.

Re: [MBZ] It Works!

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

Thanks, I've got some fine scratches from the wiper blades on the windshield of 
my wagon, I'll bet this would do the trick.

I'm also tempted to try this on SWMBO's Infiniti windshield, which has some 
pitting, and headlights from oncoming traffic cause terrible glare.

The back window had the scratches you see from a bad wiper.  None of them
were particularly deep, but there were lots of them and they made sort of a
fine “screen” that was not pleasant to look through, especially at night.

This took those scratches out to the point where they are gone.  There was
one very tiny scratch that was deeper than all the rest that is there but
significantly diminished. A number of the YouTube videos I watched on how
to do this used a felt wheel and really wailed on the scratches.  It took
them out, but I’m not sure how that might work with pitting.

Quite honestly I don’t see how it could hurt to try.  Worst case you’ll
have the cleanest windshield you’ve ever had.  For the minimal amount of
effort and expense I would try it.  My W126 has a pitted windshield, and if
it wasn’t going to a new owner later this week I would try it.

I think the design of the wagon’s rear wiper is what caused this to happen,
courtesy of the environment.  I’ve noticed that with the wiper blade in the
parked position at about 9 o’clock I get sand that builds up on top of the
blade.  Turn on the wiper, and that sand get drug across the window as the
wiper moves.  Maybe some of it would get rinsed off by the washer or rain,
but probably not all of it.  Therefore, the wiper is the culprit for the
fine scratches. I’ve seen some vehicles with rear wipers where the wiper
blade when parked is lifted off the surface of the glass with a plastic or
rubber stop.  That would prevent crud from building up on the blade while
it’s parked.

It works!

With a minimal amount of pressure and effort the fine scratches from a bad

[MBZ] It works! (was ATF Stop Leak)

[Hans Neureiter]

Bought a bottle of LUCAS TRANSMISSION FIX ($ 8.00/16 oz), put it down the
tube and drove the car 50 miles. Not a drip, car sitting all night. Before
there was a 10 diameter ATF spot on the pavement.
The stuff is thicker than molassis and slicker than owlshit. It took at
least 10 minutes to pour down the D/S tube.

 Um, owls don't do that, actually. Rather than passing what's left down
 south, it just comes back up the way it came in. Usually lots of fur and
 bones from its dinners. Or, at least, that's what the owls out here do,
 anyways.

 K, not a biologist

You'll have to ask someone with a 126 who has done the procedure. It does on
a 201 and 124. I got a copy of that procedure sent to me when I set out to
do the 201's subframe. Unfortunately, I've gotten good at dropping the 201's
subframe :-/
