Hi,
My W124 is about 1000 miles off its first 3000 since i bought it and want to try to do as much work myself on the car as possible. (mileage 142,000)
I see from reading the threads that its good to change the oil every 3000 Miles. I really am a novice to this but will the haynes manual give me good instructions and what proper filter and oil to buy.
What is the recommened time interval for the coolant and again is there instructions ( i got some really good one here ) aswell in the manual.
And simmilarily with the gearbox oil.
What is the recommended time interval for plugs?
Am a bit nervous that i could be putting all this work in to the car myself and then the timing chain goes! What is the recommended time that this should be changed.
Am i leaving out anything?
Thanks....
