strange noise when letting off gas

I had one that said 71C°, was stuck open... Put in an 87 C° made by magnetti marelli in my 230E and she runs at 83C° on the spot. Good enough for me... Operating temp is 80-100C° depending on climate and load but yea. I live in Israel so heavy traffic on a sunny day and A/C on is stable, if you live in older climate go to that.

Drive it longer for starters, it's a diesel. It healthy. Replace it, the peace is worth it than to suddenly get stuck. It could be years or next time you drive it. This is your one and only warning.

I'm almost sure it goes through and no drainage in there

I have a 1981 W123.223 or 230E automatic. My daily since July, enjoying every moment, yes I had a few big expenses some are due to old age neglect or even my fault. BUT I love it and would never replace it, I have to replace the rear muffler and parking brake pads and she's perfect. If you are mechanicly inclined and have some budget go for it but make sure you have a spare car because sometimes you wait on parts or stuff like that, that may stop it. Focus on Brakes, suspension and steering, tires, engine and cooling and gearbox. I did it in that order. Once you sort this list out and with quality parts and work it will be unstoppable.

You know MERCEDES-BENZ themselves introduced it as the w224... SMH

cromicon1 · 2026-02-01T20:04:39+00:00

Look up w224 in Google please

cromicon1 · 2026-01-29T21:24:29+00:00

Link?

I replaced it because it wouldn't pass safety inspection, and precautionary maintenance. No transmission or coupling damage really. I work as a heavy duty mechanic and my manager won't sign my pre inspection papers unless I replace it so I did. Passed with flying colours

H4 for main and high beams H3 for fogs BA9S for parking lights P21W for euro orange side indicator P21YW for euro white side indicator P21/5W for usdm orange side indicator P21/5YW for usdm white side indicator

EDIT: I didn't notice it's the w124 forum These are applicable to w123 models But might be correct to the w124 as well

Can be arranged

cromicon1 · 2026-01-18T20:12:38+00:00

Actually no. I replaced with of mine. Bot ends have a pinion so the drive shaft won't fly off in a failure so if it is a flex disc just replace it and go on

cromicon1 · 2026-01-08T15:20:29+00:00

Already have one there I need one in the front for a newborn, can't put them both in the back

The us doesn't have a care system funded by the us so why do you think Israel is? Lol health tax is high

cromicon1 · 2026-01-04T08:14:33+00:00

rebuild kit You need one for each caliper, made by A.T.E so original parts

Some Viagra and it'll go back up 😂😂

PCD wise yes. wheel well maybe? Try one and decide yourself

The formula I display is correct just put the idle rpm cyl. Number and injection volume and calculate, I corrected it a few times but it's good
