    Not sure Pat, I can drive it for about an hour and then the oil boils and the pedal goes to the floor. 'After a while (when the oil cools down) I can drive back home safely. Need to give it to my mechanic and let him have a go.

    Running great so far although I still need to overhaul the back brakes that are sticking a bit.

    There are plenty of 380SE and SEL models advertised from $4k to 10K in decent condition. I got mine for a song... clean and original, but not running. Two mechanics could not find out why... It was the hose from the fuel thank that had a hole 🙄

    I'll clean one of them a bit more than what I have done so far and advise further. Thank you of your support and help.

    I have no idea who KBA are or where they were made! 😔

    Difference Between W116 and W126

    They did have weights that originally fouled the dust cover. So after removing them there was still something that touched but we could not see.

    Great bit of information. Here's what I discovered today: The wheels are KBA, 14 x 6.5 and ET+30

    Difference Between W116 and W126

    The wheels, when held near what's on it now look (almost) identical, they are a different design and I can't find who made them or a size 😳

    Not those two options. The lugs are standards and we visualised the dust shield is clear.

    Difference Between W116 and W126

    I bought a set from Victoria, they are chrome and they were fitted to a W116 that drove all the way from Sydney to Melbourne. Sadly as I fitted one at the back it touches and makes a bit of a grinding noise... but I can't see where it touches! I'm wondering if I should get some spacers?

    dodgy electric window regulator drivers door.

    A unit from any 116 drivers side window will work.
