    Pre-Facelift ('97 E300D) versus Post Facelift ('00 E320)

    Hi Guys, I drive a '00 E320 Advantgarde W210. My friend drives an E300 pre-facelift model. The steering on his car feels so much more free and precise than mine does. Actually his steering feels exactly like my old E200 w124. My steering seems much more stiff. So, this question is directed at...

    W124 E300D Central Locking

    Quick question Sometimes, when I switch off the ignition, the door will not easily open from the inside. If I apply some force, it opens, but the action of the door lever is "hard" and none of the other doors unlock. So the central locking isn't working. However, I can hear something humming...

    E300D - turbos in the UK?
