e300d

I have a '99 S210 E300TD and was wondering if it is the same engine (minus turbo) that went into the 124 Series E300D and also would it lend itself to running on Veg oil? Also, what would I need to do to the engine to make this happen if anything? Car journalist and fanatic Jonny Smith...

A company called Express Auto Keys recently supplied me with a key for my '60's Honda motorbike, purely from the number on the lock barrel. The company also list MB cars. However, their website requests, to order a key, if the existing key has a transponder for enabling an immobiliser. My car...

Theres a chance someone might have one :D

Noticed recently a metallic rattle when stopping the engine of my w124 e300d.Had a quick look underneath and found the centre section exhaust heatshield loose at its front end. Its still screwed to the floor at the rear, but access to secure the front does'nt look possible without removing the...

Hi everyone, hoping some of you experts might be able to help me with a dilemma. I had a Merc E320 CDI before and loved it to pieces. Unfortunately fuel costs forced me to change vehicle. BUT - i am just getting rigged up to make biodiesel out of used or neat veg oil. I am just a beginner but...

Just picked up my '95 e300d plus mot certificate after its repair work. Rear and centre exhaust, bottom wisbones, top shock mounts and a couple of brake pipes. Not bad for a 206k car.Engine emissions and cat were fine, which was a consolation. Just need to change the engine oil and all filters...

On this side of the pond I cannot find any answers, I'm doing a MB606 retro fit in a late model truck. Can Somebody in here help me find a single mass flywheel that will bolt up to a eight bolt 606 crankshaft and has 144 teeth. Thanks Jay

hi Is the rear brake disc the same on a 1991-1993 300TE-24 estate W124 as they are on a 1994 E300D estate? cheers! Derek

Went out last night in my '94 w124 e300d and the instrument binnacle and auto trans. lever surround lighting failed to come on. I've checked the fuse box and all fuses are intact (fuse no.3 appears to be the one in question, also responsable for the rear number plate which remains lit)...

Hi All Not been hear for some while since I parted with my W123 230ce. Got back to Mercedes Benz beginning of this year with a 2.6 190e auto.Fabulous engine in that car but as my daily driver fuel bills were getting a bit steep.Recently picked up a '94 E300d.The interior quality on these...

Hi As many know I have a green W124 estate and now I also have a silver one. Both are E300D multivalve diesels. The new car has full MB service history up to about 50k ago and is in very good order apart from a few issues. It appears its been well cared for in its 230,000 lifetime but in...

Hi all, The madness continues. I have in my possession yet another 1969 W114 250CE. The current engine is shot. I want to install a Diesel engine to run Biodiesel. I am looking for an everyday car. Doing about 80 miles a day. I am hoping the simplicity of older running gear is going to give...

hi my E300D suddenly wouldnt start the other day. I got it started by running it direct from a bottle of fuel and back onto my garage. anyway, now i've attached a pipe to the metal fuel line IN connection in the engine bay (where the rubber pipe usually connects to), and when sucked it...

Hello all! My car is still in and out of the local indy specialist- the vacuum pump went and took the ramp gear that drives it with it. All been replaced but now it's got timing issues. The guys have put everything back according to the specs in the Mercedes manuals, for an OM606 engine it's...

Hi suddenly (without any new additions on the car recently), my W124 estate has developed a really severe battery drain. If I leave it for about 6 or 7 hours locked/unlocked it will drain the battery completly dead - not even enough power left to crank at all. I've connected a multimeter...

Am re posting this as I mucked it up first time round. Found this pipe lying near the battery, which is on the right hand side of my car, it's left hand drive, when sucked it opens/closes the valve on the air inlet tube, so it must need to be connected to something, any ideas? Have some links...

Just pipe dreaming again. Can any of you knowledgeable souls tell me if the last of the 124 diesels, 24valve, my95/96 were fitted with the 5speed electric gearbox? If so, were any of the 24v cars not so fitted?

Hi All, Here’s my E300d, 1996, Non turbo, 120k miles. It’s got the usual w210 rust problems, but not as bad as some others that I’ve owned, in particular, there is no problem on the door tops, and the area around the headlights seems free of invasion. The thing that makes it stand out...
