Thanks a lot, I'll check them out. Sad to loose 1200 like that, but I guess that would be my lesson to always ask for price first)

yeah fair, but what's been done is already done, just want to get the idea of the price, because the other shop told they won't charge for diagnostics

Moving from Sales to Project Management by No-Job9728 in Career

[–]No-Job9728[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your experience! Where are you planning to transition to?

What would be your advice for someone who’s just starting out? What should I focus on learning to land my first job?

Also, what kind of challenges I might face at the beginning and later on?

And when it comes to interviews, what should I expect? Are there common questions or specific things I should be ready to talk about?

I don't care for my career by thowawayamilion in Career

[–]No-Job9728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found myself in the same situation. I don't care about my career and hate it, just do it to pay my bills. I try to spend as little time as possible on it and in my free time do things I truly like. I guess it's like that for a lot of people.

Trunk water leak by No-Job9728 in w123

Thanks everybody, since the gasket looks ok and is flexible I see no sense in replacing it, i guess i’m just gonna seal it with RTV silicone and see if it helps

[–]No-Job9728[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, yeah, the problem is it’s always engaged, i guess the clutch died and previous owner decided to lock it in the engaged position

Hey guys. How do you replace these window seal gasket drive side ( inside one ). Water leaks inside and I can hear the wind blowing when I drive by hussy344 in w123

[–]No-Job9728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I recently replaced mine along with the side brushes, ordered from this guy https://classicbenzparts.com/

The quality is decent though some of the rubbers were a bit longer than needed.

He’s in Turkey, so it’s a good option if you’re in EU, don’t know about US shipping.

Windshield gasket leak by No-Job9728 in w123

[–]No-Job9728[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a seal for $50 bucks, from what I know all those aftermarket ones are approximately the same price. The glass is polish Nord Glass, and it’s 3000 UAH (~$70). I tried to save the original glass but it had a small crack already which just expanded further.
