I've got a 123.133 chassis. How do I determine what tranny I have? Andrew Is the vehicle a 300 DT ?...What engine number ? I can look it up in WIS Peter > I've got a 123.133 chassis.

Sorry for the dumb questions but I'm not up to speed yet..... > Ugh. How do I find the engine number? Sorry for the dumb questions but > I'm not up to speed yet..... Went to the owners manual that came with the car ('83 300D turbo) - it says the engine type is 617.952. Is that the number you needed? Are you sure it is a 123.133 ? WIS shows a 124.133 for a 300DT. Two transmissions were offered 722.317 or a 722.357. The engine series numbers are 603.962 and 603.960 There is a 123.133 listed with no data as a specialty vehicle but referenced to a 300DT. It seems that the only sure way of getting to the correct info is with the Vehicle ID Number. If you want to provide that I will give it another try. Peter > > Ugh. How do I find the engine number?

The title lists the VIN# as WDBAB33A7DB024731. The WIS [workshop information system] starts AFTER the 123 bodies were made. WIS is great for new cars but does NOT and never did replace the old microfiche system. It took the place of microfiche for NEW cars. Yes, a 300DT is for sure a 123.133. 100% a 300DT. In the US, it was offered from 1982 to 1985. All have the 722.3 transmission except the 1985 Calif model, it had the smaller 722.4. Great cars!! > Are you sure it is a 123.133 ?

If it is a 82 to 84 or 85 Fed car, it will have the 722.3 trans. > I've got a 123.133 chassis.
