You are a single member who wishes an exception. Compound that by 5,000 and were do you end up?

I found that someone had posted some instruction in German on the Schuman forum but when I tried to get them it said I had to register.

Even with the Schuman Forum request, the post/thread had relevance to the DD part of the forum. Case in point being that until I read it, I'd never heard of a turbo kit for the 240. Plus, there was an offer to return from Sweden with Mercedes/diesel goodies.

The title reads "Anyone one the Schuman forum". A casual read of the first post indicates the need for info from Schuman's site.

The chances of most folks reading it for relevance to DD is minimal.

However, on the possible chance that someone would read the postscript, I reinstated the thread.

Why are we arguing about it?

The OP asked a question.........unrelated to diesels I note..........he received the answer..........and it seemed appropriate to delete the thread.

Now, if you believe that the thread will have some value to folks seeking information about diesels in the future.........I'll put it back up for you.

I don't "slink around". You know me better than that.
Do we usually delete threads we get answers to?
