Dear Forum,
I have a 1986 300SDL with 161,000 miles. I am experiencing some pressure in
the overflow/antifreeze reserve which is indicative of a cracked head or
blowing head gasket.
I have owned 4 of these cars, but never experienced this until now. The car
occasional smokes ever so little up
Small chance it's a bad head gasket (and it may have one along with the
cracked head), but it's highly likely the head is cracked.
Mine was.

Welcome to the list William. What kind of pressure test did the mechanic
do? How much antifreeze does the top off take and how often (miles? days?)
