MB Tech Manuals from MBUSA
12-12-2005, 08:26 AM
Red Pike Marine Engineer Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: White Plains, NY Posts: 56 MB Tech Manuals from MBUSA ---------------------------------------------------------------- I mentioned, in an earlier post, the availability of technical manuals for a very reasonable price from MBUSA. I got the service manual cds for my 1987 300SDL from them, and it cost $19.99 plus shipping, as opposed to the $120 I forked over to PerformanceProducts for the cds I got for the 1987 300DT. I just received an email requesting help in locating these manuals on MBs site, and it is somewhat convoluted. I am posting the information here, as well as a direct response to the individual who queried me. To find the manuals for your car: Go to: :EDIT: Outdated data removed. In addition to the Service Manuals, many members may find the Owners Manuals and Illustrated Parts Manuals useful... I hope this is useful (maybe put in a sticky?) :EDIT: The following data is new to this post Go to the MBUSA website: http://www.mbusa.com/index.do move your cursor over the "Service & Parts" left lower corner, and click. move to the left column and you will see a list, "Accessories", "STAR TekInfo", "Maintenance Manuals", "Owners Manuals", just select and click ... Newer model vehicle DVD only. STAR Service Manual Libraries on CD and DVD http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/outside/8002/?requestedDocId=8002 W140 chassis is more $$$ as it is a 2 DVD set http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/outside/8001/?requestedDocId=8001 http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/outside/8002/?requestedDocId=8002 http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/outside/9124/?requestedDocId=9124 Last edited by whunter; 09-17-2016 at 01:56 AM.

Do these service manuals cover automatic transmission repair procedures and electricial-troubleshooting & schematics? [What I gues I mean to say is "Are these authentic and complete service manuals, like the ones the guys working the line use at the M.B. dealership"]? I bought a cd from ebay for my 107 and it's good except there is no automatic section. Of course that is the component that has failed me most, [in the past and now again at this time]. Thanks! Stan M. ---------------------------------------------------------- #4 01-14-2006, 04:33 PM whunter Hmmm, automatic transmission not found? Automatic transmission not found? I have submitted the question to MBUSA Classic, there can be no answer until Monday at soonest. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. whunter -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #5 01-16-2006, 02:17 PM Mike Miller Registered User Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Huntington Beach, CA Posts: 85 You had me merrily off to the MBUSA site for a new manual. Imagine my disappointment when I saw all those models offered and no mention of the R129 500 SL anywhere. I thought I had a classic there for a moment. Do you have other sources? Mike Miller --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #6 01-16-2006, 05:06 PM whunter Moderator Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Metro Detroit, Michigan Posts: 4,259 Hello Mike Miller Sorry, it is new data, not on the website yet. You need to call MBUSA 1-800-367-6372 to order the R129 500SL DVD. :EDIT: "Mike", Thank you for the E-mail followup. R129 is not on the cheap list. $75.00 for the DVD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #7 01-22-2006, 01:42 PM davemig Registered User Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 5 Hey Hunter Looking for a service manual for a 98 ML 320 Is this on the site? Thanks Dave ------------------------------------------------------- #8 01-22-2006, 02:25 PM whunter Moderator Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Metro Detroit, Michigan Posts: 4,259 There is newer material available through MBUSA. MBUSA > Classic on line lookup material ends at model year 1995. You need to call MBUSA 1-800-367-6372 and ask them. There is newer material available, however it is on DVD at a higher cost than the older classic data. ------------------------------------------------------ #9 01-23-2006, 01:23 PM whunter Moderator Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Metro Detroit, Michigan Posts: 4,259 The Star Classic CD-ROM does not cover vehicle transmission.

Stan M. *************************************************** Dear Mr. Hunter, Thank you for your interest in Mercedes-Benz USA. We apologize for the delay in our response. The CD-ROM includes technical information designed to repair one's car, it is not in a "how-to" format. The Star Classic CD-ROM does not cover vehicle transmission. The CD-ROM is not returnable and is compatible with an IBM computer system. You may order this CD-ROM by calling 1-800-FOR-MERCedes with your address and credit card information or by calling an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer.

Posts: 70 I see they have the service manual for the W123. Would you know if this is the same servide manual that skinnerbox.steaky has online? If so, that is the one I would like to get. $20.00 is a great price! cook ------------------------------------------------------------ #11 01-23-2006, 08:09 PM whunter Moderator Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Metro Detroit, Michigan Posts: 4,259 Sorry.

Online manuals.....
Howdy all,
I use these folks......they aren't official "Benz folks....but their info is useful, correct, and in my opinion a subscription is well worth the cost.....$24.99 for the first vehicle and $15.99 for each additional vehicle...per year..... http://www.alldatadiy.com/ They have most of the stuff in shop manuals, but not a bunch of "body" info. They do give you the proper part # from nice exploded views, and they give a difficulty rating for the job, as well as the cost of the part at the dealer, and the cost of the repair at the dealership. The website is designed for the do-it-yourselfer...... Hope that this helps..... SB

DaimlerChrysler makes EPC available online
The EPC (Electronic Parts Catalogue) is now officially and legitimately available online from DaimlerChrysler's own website. The subscription cost is a mere 15euros per annum (about US$18) (i.e. about the same as an almost unworkable and out-of-date Ebay pirate copy). The EPC works in Java. It includes everything the dealer has, except prices and I believe these are coming soon. It particularly gives the ability to search and screen by chassis number and special order codes.
EPC-net Online The website opens in German, but the language can be set to English (or one of four others) using the drop down menu in the top right corner.

Yes, but it is in Russian and it is not very good. Try the DC one: it's worth every cent of 15euros.

USA is NOT in the list of supported countries.
I believe we're required to use StarTekInfo.
