I saw this on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/124959991964


Does anyone out there have this particular repair manual? Is it any good for repairs work? Step by step instructions good? Any comments/feedback/advice is greatly appreciated.

Epc (parts catalog) works for all benzes . WIS only for later cars 90s on. Steep learning curve. Runs in a virtual windows system, usually win 7 which is included. I have used WIS for our W210. Does have step by step, if you can find the right section.

Hi Graham, thanks for your post. I got that download version of the manual. I am still working on it as describe in my other post.

Graham, the post I have concerns is about the brake push rod fell out. Title is: The brake booster push rod felled out.

I don't know anything about that issue. I did have a look at WIS and saw that it does cover your car including the brake system. But it may not have the detail you were looking for.

Hi Graham, Thanks for your post. I appreciated it. I just got the Mercedes/SMART WIS ASRA & EPC Dealer Service Repair Workshop Manual up and running. Wow, there is a lot of stuff out there. I am still trying to understand the overall program. It takes some time learning this stuff. So far, I have not seen the brake booster push rod in the program. I felt like a kid learning all over again.

You need some sort of code to get it/them to work.

Diesel911, thank you for your post. The wis manual is working just fine.

No, nothing like that. Well, actually they do require you to log in. They all use username: admin and password: 12345

You should try it. Worthwhile just for the EPC.

Yes, I understand what you telling me, Graham. Like I mentioned earlier, the WIS opened just fine. The problem I am having now is to locate the issue on the brake push rod. Perhaps, you could show me?

Yes, I realise you have the system working. It was Diesel911 I direct that comment to

I had to look up your car. 1994 Mercedes E320 wagon. It might help if I had the VIN so we get car-specific info. You could send that to me by PM or email if you don't want to post it here.

Graham, my bad. I apologize for the mix up in regards to your last post. Must be getting brain fog.

Graham, I just sent you a pm. Did you get it?

As you likely know, I did respond. I have now figured how to use cutepdf to copy the WIS sections. If you have got to them, I won't bother. They may not be of much help.

To access them, I downloaded cutepdf.exe off their site to the host OS (windows 7 in my case). I copied it to the desktop. Then I opened the virtual machine desktop. Then just cut and pasted cutepdf.exe from host to the desktop. Then ran cutepdf to install it. It now shows up as a printer. So you just print from WIS with destination the desktop. The files can then be dragged to the host desktop.

You do have to have Guest Additions installed - that should have come with the EPC/WIS/ASRA download you purchased.

I don't really know what I am doing the VM! There may be a better way! But this is how I did it in the past.
