Diesel Gods, please help...
Sounds like you have just described my 300sd. The only thing I didin't have at purchase for $825 was the lound metalic sounds. Heres the run down, replaced all front end parts and wheel bearings to get rid of shaking-$1420,new shocks back and front-$360-new tires -$300. Brakes were this summer all lines replaced and master cylinder-$130 plus change. Oh yeah motor mounts and shocks this weekend coming up-$168 total=$2368. This is not adding up the small stuff like new battery and any thing related to hose rubber and vavle gasket-I forgot used turbo from Brimms in Kenton,Oh for $260. CHA CHING Baby CHA CHING! This car sat for eight years with only 68k on the almost broken odometer. The only repair I didn't do was the front end work. I've enjoyed every minute of this car. I've had it for two years now and have seen alot of the USA in it.
