In perfect shape it might be a $5k vehicle but $4500 might be more realistic. 
It’s 16yr old but maybe the diesel adds a bit of value. 

Add up all what might be needed (CP swap figure $1k easy to get a “new” one for 
$400, maybe $400 for programming, and $200 for fluid/filter, you do the work 
not paying someone to do it) and back out from say $5k and there’s your number. 
The CP might be ok though, you’ll have to see the scan.

Let’s see…..Johnny Italiano bought it for $5000 at the auction and when he went 
to drive it home he learned it was in limp mode. He has it priced at $4000, and 
told me that he’s prepared to lose his shirt. It for certain needs the 
conductor plate, a windshield, and tires soon.
I think $1500 might piss him off, but I don’t know his definition of “loose mya 
shirt” is. 

$416 for a windshield from SafeLight btw.

Yes 722.9. The CP in a 722.9 is coded to the car. You can get a good used (or 
something) refurb for $400 or pull one at a junkyard (that might not be good) 
for not much and then clone it from the old one. That will cost something 
unless you “know a guy.”  A 722.6 CP is maybe $60 and not coded, neither is the 
control module.

Ok I just picked up an 09 in “limp mode.”  Basically same vehicle I guess. 
Starts right up and runs ok but won’t accelerate very well (which is not really 
“runs ok” but you know what I mean). It will get up to speed but slowly. A scan 
with DAS showed 3 or 4 sensors wonky. The Icarsoft wouldn’t talk to the ECU but 
DAS did, unclear why. A cheap scanner might not pick those up.  I didn’t spend 
any time messing with it, will get to that when I bring it home

Oh for sure. 
He couldn’t even describe it. I’m pretty sure that’s what he was describing in 
his broken English. He’s a 22 year old kid fresh from Italy. 

I guess I’ll take 20 pictures of Mr. Franklin and my scanner and start at $1500 
(depending on the codes of course) because he kept repeating how he paid $5k 
for it at the auction and he’s gonna “loose hez shirt” on “dis dizzle” 
I think it can be cleaned up and sorted and be a good driver. Oh, and it needs 
a windshield. Would I get it insured, wait a couple days then call insurance or 
just pay to get it replaced? I have no earthly idea how much a proper 
windshield costs.

Re: [MBZ] begje interior

2024-07-15 Thread Bob Rentfro via Mercedes
Finally made arrangements to see this thing with the seller. And of course, 
when I get there, he says that he doesn’t have the keys that his brother took 
them accidentally so my first visit was simply looking it over. He bought it at 
an auction for five grand. It looks, pretty darn good. It’s in limp mode which 
he didn’t know what it was or how to describe it very well. I’m going to try to 
meet with him tomorrow when he has the key and put the scanner on it but he 
says he’s gonna sell it and he’s gonna take a loss on it so I could really make 
that happen for him. I think because all in all it looks like it’s in pretty 
darn good shape.  there’s no hanging out that would indicate that it has any 
issues with the oil cooler seals. 
So…limp mode for this would be conductor plate as well, correct? 
I suppose scanning it will tell the tail.

Seller won't answer the oil cooler question I asked but he did supply the VIN 
so I ran a Carfax.

Two prior owners, 90% of all maintenance/services done at dealerships (CA and 
WA). One report of "minor" rear end damage in 2016.  Having read through the 
Carfax it seems all the important stuff has been done and maintained, no 
mention of oil cooler work.

It's probably worth a look you reckon?
