I bought a Mercedes 240D and it was one of the best cars I ever had for 500$.

When he said there’s nothing special about a Mercedes, he lost me. The car with the most miles in the world is a 240D. It belongs to taxi driver in Greece. He doesn’t do anything special to the car. However, ……….. it’s a Mercedes Benz.

Never ask for a mechanics estimate while he's checking out yacht web sites. 🤑😵

*Buys car for $10, 000*
*Car needs $6, 500 in repairs*
These are worth $20-25k, I wonder if I should fix it??!”

As others has said, you bought a car that is 28 years old and where the owner clearly hasn't taken care of it. Here in Europe, our cars have yearly check ups as a rule.

Before you spend all that money on a transmission, you should take it to a MB specialist in this vintage of Mercs. Those transmissions can be finicky and have several adjustments. Start with filter, fluid, flush. Then move on to vacuum adjustments and check the fluid pressures. There are ports and adjustments on the drivers side of the transmission for that stuff. Could be a broken “K” piston that is easily changed with the pan off too.

Hoovie: "Never buy a cheap used Mercedes!"
Me: * *looking at my -18.47$ in my account* *
Also Me: "OK!"

"Cheap" and "Mercedes" should never appear in the same sentence.

After fixing this Merc, Wizard went straight to the dealer and got himself a spanking new Sunseeker Yacht.

Fix it up, sell it at a loss, repeat. DON’T MESS WITH THE FORMULA!

hey man! mine did the same misfire.. it was a clogged fuel filter!
The transmision had a issue that sometimes it didint upshift to 4th gear.. it was that the new oil filter disintegrated and blocked some valves sometimes.. a new oil filter and oil and problem solved!
WHY YOU DIDNT CHECK THE DIFF OIL?? maybe its dry!
Cheers from Argentina man!

I have fallen in love with cars like this, and it never ends well.

So the car is displaying pretty classic issues for a car that age, and the parts to fix the car’s problems are pretty cheap, tbh.
Now, if you want to go to the most expensive mechanic... that’s a different deal alltogether.

One of my first hooptes was a 1990 300E with the in-line 6, wish I still had it, traded a laptop for it, new alternator and battery and it was good to go. It was cool

Most wiring harnesses that were problematic from the 1992 model year through 1995 have all been replaced under a dealer recall or service bulletin. 1996 was the year they came out with the redesigned units.
