Shadetree anyone?

Hey
Sorry if this isn't the correct forum.

I need some minor maintenance done on my 1987 300TD. W124
Live in Alexandria VA / DC Metro.

I haven't driven it much in the last several years. I've had it a long time and can't let her go.

My long time mechanic hired a new tech, I don't really like him. He broke more than he fixed.
I have a Haynes manual for reference if you need it.
Need work as follows:

Transmission service, drain including bell housing and new filter etc. Adjust vac to transmission.
Fuel filters...main and secondary...R&R
Right front corner R&R...dump truck...rock...enough said.
Secondary water pump is weeping a bit...R&R this if it is something you can do.
RR passenger window doesn't want to stay up, falls an inch or so...no clue why.
AC system check...R134 conversion 7 years ago...seems to work OK but not great.


A few other odds and ends if you want to fiddle with them. Cool if you don't.
Adjust the sun roof...all new cables and tubes done 7 years ago. Needs lube and the springs for the deflector. PITA I know.
Shock tower bushing driver side...R&R... Once again OK if you want..cool if you don't.
RF dash speaker...R&R... Once again OK if you want..cool if you don't.


I'm not cheep I just don't want to pay shop rates for a car that I never drive.

Get in touch with me and lets talk about it.
