Oil line stripped on the guage cluster, so now looking for a replacement 280 guage cluster. Originally was going to hold off until could get a kilometers speedometer/odometer, but now with the speedometer needle broken off (heat got it) and the oil line stripped, need something sooner.
Honestly, was super careful, in all the times, never had this happen. So peeved to say the least.
Check eBay. Also your local salvage. IFixIt has a good guide for repairing the odo that can be used to reset it as well if you want to keep the mileage accurate.
I *almost* broke the needle when doing a cluster swap and odo repair. Delicate little bugger ...
Post a note in the W123 Items For Sale, Wanted & Trade area, or make a new post here asking for one.
