1982 Mercedes 240d on 2040-cars
Corvallis, Oregon, United States
|
Okay quick synopsis: The car runs and drive down the road and I’m using it as a daily driver. But it has some problems:
The bad: Left cv axle needs replaced (boot torn) Rear windshield leaks, front windshield leaked but was successfully stopped with silicone Transmission likes to pop out of 1st and 3rd gear. 4th gear works fine. 2nd is okay Cycle glow plugs twice for faster startups. Engine does burn/leak oil a bit. Replaced oil pan seal about a year ago Driver seat could use some repairs, it has tears in the leather. Sunroof doesn’t work, it is siliconed sealed. No leaks I lost my keys for the car. I only have the ignition key now. The other keys were different, so you’ll probably have to get new locks that go with the VIN number. The car came with three different keys and I think it should only have one. Maybe two if you had the valet key. The ignition key might be original with the VIN don’t know. I took off the inside trunk latch mechanism so the trunk is accessible but still held down internally by a bungy cord. Right rear brakes seems to be hanging up. I replaced the brakes, calipers, rotors on all for and still likes to hang up sometimes. Might be the parking brake system giving me some grief. No instrument lights Has good spare tire and jack, but for some reason I can’t find the lug nut wrench. I’m tossing in a 1/2 torque wrench to use just bring your 11/16 socket =) A/C equipped, quit working about a year ago Cruise Control equipped, doesn’t work Missing wood trim around the fresh air vent slider control Wood trim on glove box needs to be re glued back onto box door. Flops around.
The good: Tires are 1 year old. Les Schwab brand Manual windows (for some its good) New tie rods, new front shocks (bilsteins) Les Schwab tire chains Replaced all brake calipers, all rotors, all pads, and master cylinder. Replaced slave cylinder for clutch Replaced both flex discs about a year ago Fog lights work New drive belts Battery a few months old Leather is mostly in very good condition Dashboard is only slightly cracked
I hope this list will give you an idea of what you might be
in for. If your close to Corvallis we can arrange pickup maybe during the week
evening time, Sunday works best Saturday 2nd best. If your farther away or out of state Sundays would be best, Saturday 2nd best. Sold as is. Its my daily driver so odometer mileage subject to change. Thanks for reading all of this! |

Daimler and Geely collaborate to develop 'a highly efficient modular engine'
Wed, Nov 18 2020BERLIN — German car maker Daimler said on Tuesday it will cooperate with China's Geely to build next-generation combustion engines for use in hybrid vehicles. Efforts to share development costs come as the growth potential for combustion engines faces the twin threat of the COVID-19 crisis and stricter fuel-efficiency and emission rules. "The companies plan to develop a highly efficient modular engine," a spokesman for Daimler said, adding that it would be used in hybrid drivetrains and manufactured in Europe and China. Geely declined to comment. The modular engine will be used in cars under different marques at Geely and Daimler, a person familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity as the companies are still in the early stages of developing the engine. News of the alliance was a surprise to Daimler's works council at its factory in Untertuerkheim, which specializes in electric and gasoline powertrain assembly. "We are speechless. There was not even a discussion about potential alternative manufacturing locations," said Michael Haeberle, the works council chief for Untertuerkheim. "We have the ability to build four-cylinder engines in Untertuerkheim, but there were no talks about it." Daimler said German factories will be retooled gradually to add electric drivetrains production. Most of the next-generation combustion engines will be made in China, business daily Handelsblatt reported. The alliance with Geely, which owns a 9.69% stake in Stuttgart-based Daimler, means that parts of Daimler's existing partnership with Renault could be pared back. A Renault source told Reuters that the Daimler-Geely project does not mean an end of cooperation between Daimler and Renault. Citing Daimler sources, Handelsblatt said the Daimler-Geely pact would save the German carmaker a "triple-digit million sum" — implying an amount above 100 million euros ($119 million) and less than 1 billion euros.

New Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe spied in revealing state of dress
Tue, 19 Feb 2013During a product briefing earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz told us that 2013 would be the "year of the S-Class." Makes sense, too, since the flagship Mercedes is so very close to finally showing its production-ready face. But the high-tech saloon isn't the only S-Class to talk about this year - quite the contrary. Seen here in decidedly revealing camouflage, the new S-Class Coupe will be joining its four-door compadre in the not-too-distant future, as well.
When it launches, the S-Class Coupe will officially do away with the CL-Class nomenclature. This doesn't come as a huge shock. After all, when the new E-Class coupe and convertible were launched, it officially marked the end of the long-running CLK-Class designation.
Thanks to the interesting camouflage seen here, we have a very good glimpse at how the S-Class Coupe will look when all of the molding and swirly paper are peeled off. Rakish body lines pulled from the CLS-Class meet a much more dynamic front fascia. Out back, there are horizontal taillamps rather than the vertical units used on the current car, and the whole package seems very svelte. Our spy photographer even posits that this will be "the best-looking car from Mercedes-Benz in ages."
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
