1991 300D - winmutt - 08-16-2010

It's just about cherry. When I say cherry I mean its so boring mechanically I've had to pass it on to my wife. So far I have fixed the kickdown switch. Some items need attending to, antenna does not go up all the way, right rear console winter switch doesnt go up, the turbo seems questionable and the transmission needs some tuning.

Does she like this better than the wagon? Looks good bodywise, those problems sound like you will have them solved in short order.

Question, what does the louver setup before the front tire connect to? Is it just styling, or is it venting something?

I believe that's the air intake to the air filter I think all of the turbo diesel had them on the w201 and w124

90 and up had em. Another reason to get a W124 Big Grin

Do you have the blink codes for your car.

Does anyone know if the fender with the vent will fit a pre 1990 w124? Like a 1987?


RE: 1991 300D - DiseaselWeasel - 06-16-2013

Turbos got vented wings right from the start. Yes, will fit.


RE: 1991 300D - garage - 06-16-2013

I have a 87 300D turbo, no vent in the fender.

No intentions of hijacking, i'll start anew.

Too racy for the U.S. market in '87.
