I have a LHD S300TD W140. The gear selector moves ok from P-R-N-D but is very stiff when I try to move it over to 4. Once in 4 is moves ok to 3-2 but is stiff again moving back to D. I think its probably a linkage problem and when the outside temprature falls well below freezing it is not...

Hi, I have a LHD W140 S300DT import and recently it has failed the MOT because the headlights are pointing the wrong way. Is there any way to adjust the headlight direction or do I need to replace both headlights with UK spec ones? If they do need replacing could I get away with just...

Hi, Does anyone know how to remove the panel around the side/head light switch on a S class W140 1999 model (S300TD LHD). There is a bulb behind there somewhere that illuminates the symbols just above the switch that has become intermittent. Thanks in advance. KJ

I'm just having a rant today against MB dealers, my local MB dealer (Southport, Merseyside) changed me £515.84 the other day for the privilege of getting my W140 S300TD starting again. They also wanted another £100 for a new battery, which had only been replaced 2 months ago. Fortunately they...

Hi, On my W140 S300 TD (1998) WDB 140.135 I noticed there is already a wire installed in the loom that connects to Pin A3 (phone mute colour grey with blue stripe) on the ISO radio connector. There is no sign that a phone has been installed in the past and there are no antennas to be...

Hi, does anyone know how to remove the Glove box on the W140 S300 / S320 (1998). I can remove the two little plastic hole studs inside the bottom but it is still held in place by the top near the locking latch. I want to get behind the Glove box to route some cables for the car phone...

Hi, I recently fitted a APS 30 to my LHD W140 S300 TD (1998). Everything worked ok with the Sat Nav, Radio and CD player but when it came to connecting the CD changer that was a different story. After doing some research, I found I had the wrong version. I had the CAN bus model BE 4716...
