Mercedes S280 (W140) LPG Good running project car | eBay

I am presently running a 1996 w140 S420 saloon. The factory fit parktronic is displaying the following odd behaviour. The front system is activating at all speeds below about 50mph, rather than only below about 15mph. This is somewhat irritating (especially at night) if not the end of the...

Hi everyone, I'm trying to find a supplier of original Mercedes mats for my LWB 140. I tried a parts enquiry through Inchcape to no avail. Anyone on here have any potential leads? Cheers, Drew

hi all just changed my gearbox with another w140 gearbox.... gear shift without any kicks but to install the gearbox, the control side box with pipes had to be replaced as the gearbox i got had a box with an extra pipe... so i put the box of my gearbox with the other i got to install...

has anyone encountered problems where the soft close boot had suddenly stopped working and the boot was difficult to close - working fine one day but not the next !!! Thanks

After Mrs aBecketts's accident in a fiesta last May she asked me to buy a tank and a W210 estate has fitted the bill, I fear I am to lose use of it and I think a W140 would fit the bill. I've searched the forum and picked up quite a lot of info, the S280 is not popular, the S320 being better...

Hi all, As spring approaches (yeah right), I'm starting to recommission the beast for the better weather. Last year, I had wiring to one of the ETAs replaced (there was evidence of insulation failure and a blown EGAS computer to boot) but soon ran in to difficulties with: 1) rough...

I'm not looking to buy one but if one were set on an S500, which of these two models would be a better bet in terms of reliability and running costs (buying cost aside)?

Hi, hope you can shed some light on my problem. I know the problem is electrically based due to a bit of research, but hit a brick wall. All dash ignition illuminates but won't crank over unless I put a 12v POS(+) to the starter solenoid feed, then she fires up as normal. I'm lead to believe...

ABS warning light Had problem with broken Relucter Ring which was causing warning light to stay on, also it turned out it caused associated problems with power steering and rev counter . Had it changed which sorted problem, garage wanted £700 plus vat as they would have had to change...

hi there i am looking for an automatic gearbox to fit mercedes w140 se500 (1992) with 119 engine? ... in good condition if any please contact me thanks Noel

Not long had a W140, what a lovely car they are. heavy on the juice but had expected that. Thinking of a LPG conversion - any thoughts by anyone who may have done it, with the increase in my fuel costs would only take 12 months to break even. Trouble is I don't want to spoil anything !!!!

Having had the cats removed from my w140, it would seem to make sense to also bypass the air pump, which is now even more pointless than before, and just sitting there waiting to seize up and ruin my day. EPC has 2 V belts listed for the m120.982 engine, one 2585mm and the other 2523mm, so I...

My W140 has been in Storage for about 18 months as I've been travelling a lot, and as it looks like I may be staying in the Middle East for a while I'm thinking I may ship it back out here rather than leave it standing any longer. I'll be changing the plugs, and flushing the engine as a matter...

Morning all, I am currently in Edinburgh running an exhibition, one of our exhibitors arrived in a beautiful S reg S600 v12 in blue, he'd just bought it and it had just 15k on it, I'm green with envy despite the thought of needing an oil well in the back garden.

I'm trying to source a Driveshaft for my W140 S280.. Can anyone help me?

Hit a bump in the road and my ABS warning light came on , the steering often goes heavy now and the ABS light is mostly on all the time. A Merc specialist says the Relucter ring on the driveshaft has split and the whole unit needs to be replaced as this ring is a fixture to the shaft - £700 +...

Evening All I'm currently working out in Doha, Qatar where petrol is cheaper than water at 17 pence/litre and labour is also cheap. Happily car loans are also cheap. I've seen a 1998 S600 for sale with 62k miles on the clock. I'd like to ask anyone who knows about these cars to tell me...

Im open to realistic offers for my 94 S280 as need the space on my drive. She will to be collected on a trailer as needs a driveshaft. There is a cracking set of AMG I alloys fitted all the tyres with excellent tread.. I really dont want to sell the car but health restrictions prevent me...
