I am inquiring if it is at all possible to obtain parts listing for my 1993 190E 1.8 litre (Australian Delivered or as tekky referred to in response to previous post Ausiland. Mainly interested in the mechanical side and accessories. eg. oil filters brake pads, etc. Of course benz dealers in this neck of the woods not willing to diviluge. Further any parts suppliers. What I am trying to avoid eg. set of brake pads Benz dealer $85.00 and supplier of Benz Parts but not Benz dealer but and independent $42.00. I dont mind a bit of add on by the dealer but not 100%. Thus the parts catalogue would be great when inquiring in the motor trade or attending vehicle swap meets. I obtained a similiar parts reference book for a VW beetle I am restoring and have found it useful.
