I like to call my 1985 300d turbo lurch because it gives you wipe-lash when shipting from first to second gear. In my other 87 300sdl, this does not happen at all. The car was made for California emissions test and the engine is compleatly different from any other I have looked at. The exaust system is different, the turbo is different, everything, which means the transmition. Does this 'lurch' happen to anyone else with this model? I will take some pictures of the engine to give you all an idea of how different it looks to others I have looked at. Any reason why i would be doing this?
Also, i was informed by my mechanic that my a/c evaporator is broken which will be about 15 hours of labour to fix. Is this worth it because it will cost a good deal of money. The a/c also makes the car run rediculusly hot in trafic in the sumer time.
One more thing. This car is soooo much louder than my 300sdl. Partly i think it is because it is a 5 cyl in stead of 6, so that one is always off sync. Is my guess right?
