hi
Well i finally bit the bullet and bought myself a lovely e240 (1999 108k on the clock and service history ) auto after spending some time driving my sons E200 manual .
now i have a few questions for the experts here
1. as there is no auto-transmission dip stick how do i tell what gearbox model i have to ensure i buy the right one ?
2. as i always do an oil/filter and tranny/filter flush when i buy a car ( set my own base line ) i was wondering what specifications the transmisson fluid must match as there is a deal for Comma ( dexron III, AQ3 ) in Halfords at present and for the first flush may be ok and at the the next one use the Mercedes fluid ??
3. what are the best spark-plugs for the v6 2.4litre
4. how do i remove the factory fitted telephone assembly ( in red on the attached dash picture ) as i want to fit a neat nokia bluetooth instead. will there be even more holes on the passenger side of the dash as a result of the removal ??
thanks in advance
