124

Good day, Has anyone investigated if the rear suspension, diff cradle etc from a 129 fit to a 124 sedan? Side note, I recently visited the UK - where have all the 124s gone? Kevin in Oz

Folks Does anybody know, or can tell me, if the front inner arch liners on a 124 stop at the bumper height. As I look into the wheel arch, while standing behind the wheel, I can see the inside of the bumper apron? I wondered if this was correct or, am missing a bit of trim? It is the same on...

Team Can anybody please tell me how my sills are fixed to the car? This is a 1987 Wagon-pre Saco Panels. From what I see I have tin sills with holes for the jack tubes. I then have weather plugs on each jack tube (not clipped into the sills) Are the sills welded on? Are they expensive...

Folks I am trying to narrow down some niggles on my 300TE 4-Matic. The car pre-dates STAR. One of the inputs for the 4-Matic is the Steering Angle Sensor. Were this to be faulty? Would I expect to get a "blink code" ? Also would I expect to see any problems with the steering/handling? I...

Complete running car at the moment, dash pod gone and rear window motor o/s gone, Nothing to do with me, just doing advert for a friend For any more info please ring Phil on 07970 998346, thanks

Friends Can anybody advise how to adjust the height of the leading edge on the factory fit sunroof please. It sits just slightly lower than the roof at the leading edge but is level at the rear. I only noticed as I had to fit a new wind deflector (this I do not believe is the issue) but may...

Folks I'm after the door pillar trims, including the body side tailgate pillar trims ( the ones that hold the pillar lights) all in mushroom. Can anybody help please?

Somehow this reminds me of an auto box I know.

Friends I am after the trim that goes around the inside tailgate release latch, on a 124 estate. Ideally in mushroom. For clarity. It's the inside latch that a passenger in the 7th seat would use to open the tailgate. Thank you. Sent from my iPhone using MBClub UK

Folks AM I missing a a locating plate/tab on my Drivers Side front indicator? I have bought new indicator lenses that have three locating tabs. Two locate onto clips on the headlight side. The single (outer) tab appears to have nothing to locate into, just a hole in the metal inner wing...

Well a good 100 mile run this afternoon with no dramas. The engine hunts badly at idle only when very hot. I am suspicious of the twin pipes on the idle control valve. I know both are split where they push into the actual valve. These have seen a previous repair with jubilee clips. I have...

Friends On the 124 The electric factory sunroof has a "wind deflector". This is the strip that stops that wind from buffeting inside the cockpit. I believe that it should be spring loaded to raise when the rood opens lower when the roof closes? If it is spring loaded then mine is not as it...

Folks Can anybody please advise if I need to remove the entire rear bumper to change the plastic insert/capping. This is the part (darker plastic) that wraps around the width of the car in the centre of the bumper. I have a new one and it looks to be retained by several plastic tangs with two...

Folks If anybody is breaking a 124 Wagon or knows of a set of metal 124 door sill entry plates? Please give me shout. I have the plastic mushroom ones which look okay, but I think that some nice polished metal ones would be better. Thank you. Bruce

As above please, in black. It is the black dimpled plastic insert that sits inside the rear bumper coloured cladding. Mine has dent in the passenger corner that is not happy pulling out with heat. I think I made it worse trying to pull it out. Its minor cosmetic but I want the car looking...

Hello I've just fitted aftermarket cruise (will post more info on this when time allows). All is working well, but it's not picking up a signal from the speed sensor. When I bought the car it had a factory speed sensor on the back of the speedo but nothing was connected to it. I fitted a...

A few months ago I went to close my sunroof and nothing happened. During later investigation there was no blown fuse & I could hear clicking in the back by the motor. I closed the roof manually and it closed easily enough so I was fairly sure I could rule out a mechanical fault. I looked around...

Anybody know if there is a big option 124 radiator that will fit an AC Auto 320 car, maybe one of the Diesel radiators for example. I am getting sick and tired of a overheating car [even in winter now] so I wonder if fitting something that holds half the Atlantic will stop me twitching about the...

Hello I've just picked up a pair of Febi wishbones for my S124. Had a good read through a few posts here about these and decided that I'd replace them at 130k miles as a precautionary measure. Don't like the idea of an adrift front wheel! This post from WDB124066...
