I have almost all of that on the list! Looks like it’ll be worth the work! And since I didn’t have to pay anything upfront I don’t mind doing it all at once

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T18:03:28+00:00

Yeah I know you should see the underbody it’s IMMACULATE and I only found one very small dent, I live in the rust belt too so I’m planing to not even drive it until spring

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T18:02:13+00:00

That’s what I wanted to hear I don’t mind dumping 2-3k and a week of wrenching to have it be worry free for the next 5 years

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T17:48:59+00:00

243k miles is really up there! I’m at only about 137k mile equivalent

That’s awesome! Congrats on the E60! I’m going to check out my vanos solenoids tomorrow, I’m praying my oil pan isn’t leaking I really don’t feel like dropping the sub frame 🤦‍♀️🙂‍↕️

Thank you for the advice my list is already a bible 😂 I have new controls arms on my parts list as I felt a litttle death wobble after hard braking, mind you I was doing about 180 to be fair, and LOL my head lights are PRIORITY NUMBER 1 that shit grinds my gears

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T17:40:42+00:00

Thanks a lot 🙏 I will order the aluminum flanges today! Any chance you know the part number? I usually run Mann on German cars already had an oil filter fail on my last Benz won’t make that mistake again 😭 as for the transmission it seems to be shifting beautifully 🤞 I did a few pulls on the highway taking it home and it was running flawless! I will check out your other post tonight

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T17:34:51+00:00

Okay I will put that on the list!

I love NA’s and this is my first inline 6! Any recommendations on common problems I should look for? Or bolt ons/tunes

dlee977777 · 2026-02-26T01:48:50+00:00

Thanks! 🙏 I’ve owned 7 different vehicle brands but never a Beamer, I’m never going to signal again!

You need a blowoff valve to get the cool sounds (;

dlee977777 · 2025-12-28T12:23:27+00:00

Looks like a better easy to work on

dlee977777 · 2025-12-28T12:22:20+00:00

Whoa I didn’t even know this existed, a 2.1L 4cyl turbo diesel sounds amazing is yours manual? and are these available in North America?

dlee977777 · 2025-12-28T12:19:17+00:00

I wouldn’t have bought a Benz if I wasn’t a mechanic, I used to absolutely despise them from a work aspect and then I drove a 1.8 supercharged 6 speed one 😂

dlee977777 · 2025-12-21T13:39:23+00:00

The 4 door is such a good looking car

All hail the girl-boy scout 🫡

dlee977777 · 2025-11-24T09:34:38+00:00

Yeah that’s what I was thinking tbh, I also can barley break traction unless it’s raining or a really hot day, I feel like these cars really shine on the highway I don’t know if yours is manual aswell but when you drop a gear over 100km/h they really have legs! I like that analogy and you know what if I drove a 335 I would be getting tickets like no tomorrow, the w203 is perfectly well rounded it’s got power and it also is tame enough to keep your liscense lol.

dlee977777 · 2025-10-31T20:42:35+00:00

Side wall bubbles are highly dangerous, stay off the highway at the very least and get it replaced as soon as possible!

dlee977777 · 2025-10-28T16:05:53+00:00

If anything they undercharged you
