500SL W129 issues

Hi Guys

Just trying to sort out the purchase of a 1990 tilt500SL (pre cat).

Both front seat tilt forward mechanisms are jammed - any ideas?

Do you know any cheap suppliers of front Discs and Pads?

try banging the seat-back with a fist, the unlock vacuum servo doofer gets stuck. happens on my CL.. lube the lock mech when you get it open. also check vacuum lines to the seat, and from the motor / pump (prob under rear seat / in boot.
