Need help on UK 300D 6cyl Diesel

[liverpooluk]

Hey guys

1991 w124 300D

Straight 6 cylinder Diesel (non Turbo)

Im after a viscous fan and clutch for my motor. After buying the car i realised that it didnt have one at all (previous owner didnt bother to put it back on after a smack) Its been running fine no temperture increases (steady 80 degrees) but now the heatwave in england now is starting to take its toll

Anyway less of that my problem is im trying to source a fan from a salvage yard or someplace

Is the fan unique to the 300D or will any viscous fan from the 124 range diesels work on it?

Hope its universal coz noone has a 300d scrapper over here! (shizer )

ello mate-

I'm not an expert on these parts but looking in my 124 parts catalogue it seems the E300 fan/clutch is different to other models.

have you tried picking up a copy of 'mercedes enthusiast'? that has lots of 2nd hand parts dealers listed in the back.

or- http://www.eurocarparts.com/

or you could just bite the bullet and go to the (ouch) dealer...

just so happens that ive just been looking at that mag and saw all the places available. gonna try them.

thanks anyway.


If anyone else can shed light on this g8


turns out that its the same fan as

E200D-E300D C250D TD E290-300D

So that helps out a bit.
