Hi Hunter!
Do these service manuals cover automatic transmission repair
procedures and electricial-troubleshooting & schematics?
[What I gues I mean to say is "Are these authentic and
complete service manuals, like the ones the guys working the
line use at the M.B. dealership"]?

I bought a cd from ebay for my 107 and it's good except there
is no automatic section. Of course that is the component that
has failed me most, [in the past and now again at this time].

Thanks!
Stan M.

Hmmm, automatic transmission not found?

Automatic transmission not found?
I have submitted the question to MBUSA Classic, there can be no answer until Monday at soonest.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

You had me merrily off to the MBUSA site for a new manual. Imagine my disappointment when I saw all those models offered and no mention of the R129 500 SL anywhere. I thought I had a classic there for a moment. Do you have other sources?

Hello Mike Miller
Sorry, it is new data, not on the website yet.
You need to call MBUSA 1-800-367-6372 to order the R129 500SL DVD.

:EDIT:
"Mike", Thank you for the E-mail followup.
R129 is not on the cheap list.
$75.00 for the DVD

There is newer material available through MBUSA.

MBUSA > Classic on line lookup material ends at model year 1995.
You need to call MBUSA 1-800-367-6372 and ask them.
There is newer material available, however it is on DVD at a higher cost than the older classic data.

The Star Classic CD-ROM does not cover vehicle transmission.

I see they have the service manual for the W123.

Would you know if this is the same servide manual that skinnerbox.steaky has online? If so, that is the one I would like to get.

$20.00 is a great price!
