I lost my instrument cluster lights today, including the one that lights up
the ext. temp. According to the mbcoupes archives there are 4 bulbs
involved, and I doubt all 4 would go out at once, so what else should I look
for? The fuse (number 1) looked good and everything else ...

I have owned a 1984 300 SD for over 20 years.  I really like the car and
don't want to get rid of it, but lately I have had a number of problems.
It is getting really hard to start in the morning.  Originally, I
attributed it to the cold weather, but I live in Los Angeles, and it

The car starts fine when it is warm, but with the recent cold snap in
Houston over Christmas it was very hard to start.  Like the choke wasn't
working if it were a carburated engine.  The car ran fine once I finally
got it started.  This happened 3 consecutive days so it was not an

Recently someone decided they needed the stereo out of my A140 more
than I did, unfortunately they cut all the wires and took the
connectors. Would some kinder person be able to provide me with the
colours of the wires so that I can fit new ISO connectors?

dying on me. I was told that it most likely is an electrical short, I

air flow sensor going on these 430s. the check engine light came on and the
sensor was repaired 4 months ago. the light came on again and it was found
to be the problem again. part number is 113-094-00-48. ...

Gentleman Ben, the beloved 300SD, has now recovered from the unpleasant
3-piece camshaft episode (change out your vacuum pump before this happens
to you!).  After almost 2 years in the home hospital, a good used engine,
rebuilt transmission from Adsitco, a double buff & wax, and ...

Sorry on my english...

Got an old automatic carberator estate model.
It has started to idle badly, can stall when going slow, but only when
hot.
Have had the car serviced, but still no joy.

I need to replace a window rocker switch, and would like to know how to
remove, or lift up, the center console.
Google searches have found other 300s in a range of years, but not mine
specifically.  Some models/years say the wood grain is mounted on four snap

In Florida, I recently bought a 1986 560SL with 130k miles showing. There

changing the brake fluid at yearly intervals. I will take the car to the
local Mercedes dealer for that change.
