<title>190D idle issues</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=19535</link>
<description><![CDATA[I&#39;ve got an &#39;85 190D with just over 200k. Recently, when driving at highway speeds for extended periods (1&#43; hour at 65mph), it would start to idle very roughly (as though it was running on 3 out of the 4 cylinders) as soon as I got off the highway and pulled up to a stop sign. As I&#39;ve been putting about 230 miles week on it I&#39;d really like to get this sorted out. It&#39;s not burning oil, is still getting about 34mpg on dino diesel and otherwise runs ok. It&#39;s also got an issue with the oil gauge, which pegs at 3 as soon as the vehicle is started and doesn&#39;t move; oil sender? Would really appreciate any suggestions as I&#39;m driving this from Phoenix to Tucson without a/c and I really don&#39;t want to be sitting by the side of the road when it&#39;s 115 degrees waiting two hours for a tow truck. Thanks.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Didn&#39;t one of the Mercedes designers (Bruno Sacco I think it was) say that the 190E was one of the most important Mercedes models to date? Who said it, if it was actually said in the first place? <br />]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Yes! I found a wonderful W201 1.8E in time warp condition. One family onwer and the last keeper as fastidious in regards to preventative maintenance as myself: he kept a record of every EURO he put in the car.<br /><br />Despite being the entry model, it&#39;s got aircon and ABS. I changed the oil, the cooling fluid and the spark plugs today and fitted a newer Becker/Mercedes radio-cassette. I am now sourcing the correct contemporary Becker Grand Prix or Mexico to fit:<br /><br />De My new 190E 1.8<br /><br />De My new 190E 1.8<br /><br />I am very glad to finally own a Mercedes that my wife does not particularly like: Thus she will not take it away from me as she always does!<br /><br />Piccies here:  http://picasaweb.google.com/mortinsonoffice/MyNew190E18]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I have stumbled across a very clean black on gray 190e 2.6 with 66,000 miles very close to me.<br /><br />The seller is willing to let me check it out in any way I want.<br /><br />It is tight. Drives extremely well. Handles well and has some zip.<br /><br />I can get it for $5k or a tad less. They seem to be going for more than that on eBay with with low miles.<br /><br />Any feedback would be appreciated.<br />Thanks]]></description>

<title>Shifter wanted</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=8259</link>
<description><![CDATA[<br /> Hi folks,<br /> I&#39;m not a regular here.  Most of my posting is over on the G-wagen board, but I thought someone here might be able to help me with a problem I have.  You see, I changed the transmisison in my G-wagen to a 5 speed that has the same shifter pattern as a 16V 190E.  I was wondering if anyone here might know of a good source for a used shifter, or at least just the knob.  I&#39;m afraid my old beater of a G would flatly reject a fine brand new shifter knob from its slick road carving little brother.  But I might be able to slip a used one by him.  :^)<br /> Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Feel free to PM me if you want.  I might not remember to check back here too often.<br /> Thanks in advance.<br /> Dave G.]]></description>
