When you post, be sure to include the year and model of your W123 along with your geographical location if you don't have it included in your signiture or profile, that helps a lot. If you have a question, don't "piggyback" on a current thread or some old thread from many years ago. I see many newbies do that, and their questions go untouched. Just start off anew and create a new thread. Try to be as precise as possible when making a title for your thread, you'll probably get many more views, more help and answers to a thread titled "White Smoke at High RPMs in 1979 240D" rather than "Smoking 240D". It also helps to type your questions in the best english you have, using proper spelling, grammar and punctuation rather than using "e-mailese". Those who want to help you need to understand what you're saying, some can't decipher acronyms and abbreviated spellings of words and will pass your question over. Give detailed information about your problem as well. If you don't understand the answer to your question, don't be afraid to ask for clarification. Or if you start a thread and it goes unanswered or if it has been responded to but your main question still is unanswered, ask again in the same thread, or try the search function (I'd go with the search in that situation, but that's from my personal experiences). Here's a screenshot of where the search function for the W123 forum is.
Or, you can access it here. http://www.benzworld.org/forums/search.php (Note: Be sure to select W123 E,CE,D,CD,TD,TE Class on the Search Forums Menu if you decide to search from the provided link).
If you can follow the little guide above, then those offering help can be more accurate and helpful in determining how to fix your problem and you can get your answers in a more efficient manner.
