I am wondering if anyone has any experience importing a newer used
Mercedes from the USA into Canada. I am looking at a 2 or 3 year old S

Its a stock 5 cyl. 300SD. Has maybe 300K miles...hard to say as the
odometer hasn't been working for a long while.

From years of driving lesser cars I developed the habit of shifting in
to Reverse from Drive without stopping.  When I do it now there's a hard
lurch.  How much abuse can the E-320's tranny take?  Sounds like it may
be an expensive habit.

Where is the OBD port on a 94 C280?  I can't find anyplace to hook up.  Is
it OBDII?  The ck eng light came on after my daughter failed to put the
gas cap back on when she refilled and it stayed on.  I need to see if it's
that or something else.

I cannot make this thing start.  The motor spins but no fire.  Was running
fine until my son used it one time.
