Found this guy selling a set of 8 D-jet injectors on ebay. Off a 350Se. (the yellow ones) aren't these the same as the 450? sellers name is " 560slgp " Mt Eliza Victoria, heading is "Mercedes Benz 116 Fuel Injectors" (sorry don't know how to copy an ebay link) Starting bid is $75.

I watched both videos with interest. used Googles "translate" function and it worked well. both videos were translated to German! lol :rolleyes:

I have a tow bar on my 116 donor car, if any body is interested. Now that the bumpers are gone, it shouldn't be too hard to remove. pm me if you want me to send pics. $50. East Bentleigh postcode 3168 pick up.

Funny how things aren't quite as you remember them. Uncovered the donor merc today and took a picture of the grille. Picture says it all. Let me know if I can help. Also the 2 spare steering wheels I have both suffer from slippage on the rim. They are however in decent condition otherwise...

Saw this w116 280s on ebay in Adelaide. It's a 1978 South African import. $500 starting price no reserve. If there is anyone in that part of the country looking for some body parts and interior trim etc, this one seems in decent nic. the ebay item number is 170750501342 or try...

A bit off topic, I know......but theres so much information out there, I' thought it was worth asking. I am in Melbourne and will be in need of a w108 boot lid for the "project car". The one it has is developing a few too many rust bubbles under the paint, and I am thinking it's best to make...

Found this online w116 service manual some years back. Whilst it spoils from the U.S. most of the info is relevant to Australia. It's still operating. Hope it can be of use to others as it has been to me. http://handbook.w116.org/matrix6.htm

as luck would have it, I found a guy in Melbourne, the other week, who repairs steering wheels for the trade, and others. I went to his place to pick up some parts for my w108 and saw all these steering wheels (lots of mercedes) hanging from racks. Upon questioning, he told me one of the things...

Hi guys. Time time to fix those 3 rust spots under my chrome trim on the back window. I am having the rear windscreen glass popped next week by a professional windscreen guy. I'm giving him the go ahead to cut the rubber in order to (hopefully) get the glass out in 1 piece. Its original rubber...

I am looking at the degree of difficulty in removing an ignition switch from the dashboard. It's the ignition switch that I want. Do I have to remove much (or all) of the dash to get it out, or is the wood panel removable separately? Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I took out the radiator from my 108 ( I know this is mainly a 116 forum but I am working on a 108 project car and some things can't be that different surely). Anyhow I had it professionally cleaned and checked, and refitted it, also fitting a new cap and new hoses. My question...

Hi Guys. Thought I'd throw an easy one for my 1st ever thread. I have a 1975 116 280 se. Am looking for Bilstein shocks for the rear. (regular ones not self leveling). Where is the best to go? I have found some pretty keen pricing from the States even with shipping, but surely someone on Oz...
