Oil Leaks

No, I never did get the chance to fix them on either car.

On the 95 E320, the dealer kept insisting but it was never significant enough to warrant the cost for fixing. Perhaps it lost 1/2 quart per 4k miles. The car lost a battle with a tire tread on the highway and my insurance company totaled it.

I sold the 97 before doing anything with it.

I pick up the 90 300E this Saturday. If I understand the M103 can still have timing cover leaks, but I wonder if the head gasket oil leak is common to the M103 engine.

It seems of the two leaks the head gasket leak would be the most expensive to repair.
