Description

The engine and transmission run strong. I've had vehicle since 1999. I have two keys. The wagon has 3rd row foldable seat. The car looks great and gets frequent compliments. I just replaced the brake fluid last weekend with ATE DOT4 fluid. I recently changed the transmission filter with oem Mercedes filter and Fuchs fluid (all german). I also use Lubro Moly synthetic motor oil and diesel fuel additive exclusively. The fuel additive is great, specially with the new low sulfur diesel fuel. California car. Never seen ice. Last year, replaced the front upper control arms, ngine mounts, nd engine shocks. I also have some steering linkage parts that I was planning to replace which I will include. I also have the hard-to-find luggage rack cross bars that I removed due to the wind noise they create. There is a little rust on bottom. Items that need fixing are:The Neutral shift switch (I have a genuine MB switch but have not got around to changing it). Car starts as long as the Park position clicks in place so some times I have to just rock car back/forth until it clicks. Antenna mast is broken but I have a genuine Hirschman replacement which I will include. Don't know if antenna motor works. The front speakers I replaced are german-designed for this model and sound great for their size. The rear suspension nitrogen spheres need replacing. The rear bounces and feels hard but when the spheres are replaced it will ride very nicely. Suggest that when the spheres are replaced, he suspension fluid and filter should be changed as well. Also, ne of the rubber boots that protect from dust in the rear axle is torn, o I add synthetic grease to avoid it going dry. The AC does not work and don't know why. And there is a crack in the windshield on lower left side but it does not interfere with driving. The carpets were removed so it only has floor mats.
