Why did you replace the electric with a manual? Hopefully this will be it for awhile. Many other things were already taken care of. This really makes me appreciate the 240D. The Previous Owner wanted to give it to his daughter for a graduation present.

After spending months on a transmission overhaul along with new flex joints in the driveshaft, trans mount, new AC pump, new axles, new braking system all the way round, and various other things, he found out she didn't appreciate any of it! Good for me since he spent close to $7000 in parts and provided his own labour!
