Interesting proposal, though I'd need a turbo engine with the wagon/sls head. Yours are CD and SD engines right, no SLS pump on them?

Not that I know, have fueled multiple times since the problems began.

I'll try the valve adjustment for starters, just need to get my hands on the bent wrenches.

Oh, forgot to add.
It doesn't seem to consume any oil, and maintains both normal temperature and oil pressure during drive, even when flooring it for miles and miles.

Anyone know if I could use the W113 cables...

W123 power steering only one direction

Looking at a 1980 W123, seller says power steering only works clockwise but not counterclockwise. Is this an easy fix? Seems like a fluid valve stuck or something like that. A costly repair?

Might have found my answer; appears only 250, 280 and coupe models had wooden trim, others (200,230,200D,220D,240D) did not. Not sure about the 240D 3.0 though.
