I can't believe you got one with the fancy steering wheel but no carpet! I ended up getting custom rubber mats to cover my carpet, so it's all good. 16k miles and we still love it.

I am wondering the same thing about the oil pump. Seems a check valve, if there is one, may be getting weak. The car only has 76k miles but sat in a garage for many years.

240D oil pump rebuild

My '76 240D w115 oil pump seems to be losing its prime after sitting for long periods of time. On initial startup it takes a full 10 seconds to peg the oil gauge. I'm sure it is not the gauge, ...

We pulled the trigger on a brand new fully loaded 2018 Metris back in December. Nearly 4 months and 6000 miles later, "Plasticvan" has proven to be much better than we imagined.

Interesting, thank You!

At 76k miles (with service records as backup) I really hope it hasn't been adjusted yet, and bringing it into spec once will be just what it needs for several years.

Is this true? My reverse is slippy, and slow to engage. Fluid is full and looks new. I like the style of the W115 but wouldn't kick a 123 out of my garage.

I had replaced it earlier, as it still had the original one and the first time I had to use it, it sprayed fuel everywhere. It's got the new style primer now.
