    Guys what can you say about this car

    1981 Mercedes Benz 300SD turbo diesel

    I just paid one today for 250T and the torque was awsome for a 23 year old car.

    Does anyone here own such a BEAST? share me some tips and tricks on how to maintain it.

    It would be nice also if you could share your experience regarding this model.

    Does anyone here have a USERS MANUAL that I can copy from or even a CD of this model.

    I think i'm going to enjoy this car.

    Hello. We also have a 1981 300SD. What version is yours? Ours is a U.S. model with California Emissions (makes less power than the standard W126).

    We have the U.S. owner's manual. The international manual is better, though. I think CATS can still get you ca copy of it. We got the W124 manual from CATS back then.

    First tip: The hood and trunklid are made of aluminum. Take care not to damage them as they need special tools and welding tech to repair.

    Rebel,


    CONGRATS!!! Yup, the SD series is really torquey. In fact, if you floor the pedal while cruising, you risk snapping your neck bcoz of the efficient torque distribution hehehe!!!

    For PMS, I see a lot of MB's being maintained (PMS only though) at BASICS in Libis.

    I can also recommend ERL MOTORWERX c/o Ernie Lorenzo (09168263669). A lot of bimmer and MB owners have their cars serviced there. They have a complete line of diagnostic tools there!


    Otep,

    Kinis ng MB niyo!!! Nicely maintained!!!

    Uuwi ako bukas ng Bulacan. I will take pics of my W123. Yun ang kailangan ng detail. May agiw at molds na daw. hehehe.
