If Froggy is '74 as I suspect, he needs a tumbler from a 115 or 116, nothing much later. It should heave the edge cut key. It might be that Curt is correct, you need to clean it, and possibly need a new key, but the tumbler assembly might be OK. -- OK Don NSA: The only branch of government that

That noise was a motor pulling the hatch shut. My first guess is the wiring at the hinge has flexed too many times and your may have a broken wire or two. Max Dillon, Charleston SC ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/arc

Hi, all. My '87 300TD used to have a whirr after closing the rear hatch but no longer does that. It still opens and closes without the whirring noise. Is this a problem or should I just RTFM.   Fred Moir Lynn MA Diesel preferred. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com T

107's, with their near-20-year run, exhibit quite a variation over the years. ACC, engines, keys, etc. Our 1983 and 1986 SL's used different keys, for example. 1986 was side-cut, the 1983 was old-school edge-cut. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To searc
