300se

i spotted this today, anyone know any deails about it? :confused:

How does the climate control work in this vehicle? I followed this thread here Climate Switches - Benzworld.org - Mercedes-Benz Discussion Forum and it makes sense. Does this type of system not have a climate control computer to worry about? Can you heat the left of the car and cool the...

Hi, I recently bought this car as the body is in immaculate condition and the previous owner said it was in excellent mechanical condition (however this is not the case). I took it to the mechanic the next day to have it checked out and he found a few problems which he didnt think was a big...

Looks like a lovely old boat, would have been even better with leather... 1989 MERCEDES W126 300 SE AUTO RED GENUINE LOW MILEAGE MILES | eBay

I've seen a lot of comment about 300SEs on LPG. For what it'sworth, here are my observations' My 1990 300SE was converted to dual fuel at 87,000 miles and it's now done 165,000 miles. Over this time I've found a few weaknesses but nothing serious. The engine runs just like new and there is no...

I am selling my much loved car. If you are seriously looking for one of these then I will not go into detail about this car as the car itself needs no introduction. This is a 1991 300SE W126. It is Pearl Blue with grey leather interior. It has a sunroof, electric windows and runs like a dream...

Someone please save this Modern engine and auto box transplant maybe?....

:oI have just noticed that my ABS light is on, so I am going to change the OVP relay first. These items are quite expensive from Mercedes, but Meyle sell them a lot cheaper. However, I have no experience of spares from these people so I would be grateful if any members could offer their opinions.:(

I last posted on the 5th of this month concerning my W126. I had to keep the engine revved until it reached near to its operating temperature, then it would stabilise and allow me to move away. I replaced both the dizzy cap and rotor arm (with genuine bosch parts) as per the advice from Mazza...

My W126 has become difficult to start. Unless I depress the accelerator pedal the engine just dies. The only way I can get it start is to keep the accelerator depressed until the water temperature is almost 80 degrees - then I can take my foot of the pedal and all is OK. When I have been out on...

Hi, I've noticed recently that the oil pressure in my W126 300SE sits and just under the 3 line, but as it gets warmer, after about 15 minutes of driving it reached the full 3 line. Is this a problem? At idle it's at about 1.5. I use castrol 10W40 and an MB filter. Thanks

Hi all, first of all, I know that this is not the correct forum but since I do not have 30 posts I have to post it here for the time being. Nevertheless, I understand that some of you are curious about the advance of the restoration project of my 300se fintail. Here's how far I am at the...

Hello all, I've recently bought a 1988 300SE, which I am very pleased with and allows me to fulfill a childhood ambition! It was mechanically inspected before I bought, and all the oily bits are fine. I tested the electrical bits during the test drive and they all seemed fine, too. But... I...

When I start my car it seems to keep the engine revving high as if the throttle is stuck (sits on 1200- 1500). After a while it goes down to 800 and idles well. But on occasion it does this at random times, sometimes when I am driving and come to a stop, even though I am not pressing the...

I am after an electric aerial and the chrome dome part which sits on the wing.

Trying to tidy up the garage.. I have almost an entire interior for a SWB 300se, in "Velours Light Brown (974)". It actually looks like tan too me. Anyway, I need to shift the following: Passenger seat Rear Seat 4 Headrests 4 Door cards Rear Parcel shelf Rear Speaker Covers 4 Door...

Hi folks, I have just fitted a rebuilt alternator to my 300se, it was throwing out 14 volts on the bench, now its on the car and..... nothing, not showing any charge at all, as far as I can see all the wiring is correctly connected, and the belt is on properly, just wondering if theres...
