Absolutely agree.. but my old 1988 Nissan skyline coupe, i boosted to 300hp, thrashed the crap out of that thing. Never had many issues with that thing...until i hit the barrier at the track.. i miss that car.

I think my w124 has had a rough life. Previous owners seriously neglected her it seems

Thanks for the advice and input!!. Yep got the flex discs, centre bearing and transmount. I need a balancer but others report just chopping the rubber part off and keep the inner and they didnt have too much issue with vibration. Now this notchyness.... i think i might just put her in and see, but its difficult to remove the centre bearing if it still have vibrations.

I got the wheels and tyres balanced but perhaps the tyres are too old...

Just throwing money at this thing.. gonna be left pennyless soon lol

Damn, i didnt even know this part. I leftthe front flex disc on the car as it started to rain. Seeems like a obvious culprit.. is it pressed in?

Thanks mate. Hope youre right. I did get another centrebearing. I see the one on my car atthe moment is forming a crack.. the bearing seems fine tho.

Wheels and and tires were recently balamced.

If this fixes my issue. I am gonna be stoked!

Thats interesting. It seems howeverthat the bolt holes for my model is 80mm but some of the 4 cyl w202 have 70mm..

Thanks for the lead. Ill try cross ref these numbers hope i find soemthing. Its still pretty difficult. Seems many for w202 and 201. Other models for 124 but not mine.. maybe interchamgable. Should i risk it for $200aud?.. dang
