Yesterday, when I took my car to a MB specialist they told me that I need to check the play in my LR - axle. Questions:

1. If there is play, can this be adjusted? Or, do I need to just replace axle?

2. How difficult of a job is this?

3. Any special tools required?

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

  1. Hard time inserting key in driver door...help

    W126 S,SE,SEC,SEL,SD,SDL Class
    1988 560SEL I HAVE 3 keys and all do the same. It won't insert all the way unless I wiggle it around. Sometimes takes me a good 15 seconds of fiddling. Other door and trunk and ignition no problems. Does it need grease?

    W126 S,SE,SEC,SEL,SD,SDL Class
    There is no K-jet, this car had a carburetor swap done - done well actually aside from cold starts being fickle and no choke control inside the cabin. So well in fact that I can put it back to K-Jet without too much fuss by the looks of things. Replaced the front passenger side marker...

  6. 300SEL No Start - HELP!!!!

    W126 S,SE,SEC,SEL,SD,SDL Class
    Hello everyone; Recently acquired a 1988 300 SEL with 93K miles from an auction (the car was not running). The car cranks and I even got it to run after long cranking. She would run as long as I kept the RPM around 2000, but as soon as I let go of the gas she would begin to stall at about 400...
