You Nailed it on the 300SE Wayfarer!

It truly does handle like a big "sporty" sedan. Night and day from the very nice 300SD I drove for nearly a decade. It often feels like a V8 if you are in the right spot on the rpm band. I love...

Thinking of doing my first oil change on my 1990 300SE. I'm going with Mobil 1 15w50. I'm the previous owner of a 1985 300SD, so the filter situation is a bit different.

I am not familiar with EPC, it kind of looks like the "chinchilla" as it has a kind of dull brownish tone.

It's also an intermitten noise

Even stranger, this noise does not occur until after driving. When started from cold, I can turn the wheel without sound. By the time I get back to my driveway...I can hear it. 1985 300SD.
