Up here in the frozen north (Canada), diesel has been 10-12 cents cheaper PER LITRE for a long time - before that even cheaper. Mind you, our fuel prices are still way more than south of the border.

I wave at every older Benz I see - about half wave back. I figure if I keep doing it, maybe the unenlightened will eventually get the idea, and the percentage will go up. Wave on!

This is a weird one. My '80 300SD brakes perfecly 99.9% of the time. But, if I'm backing into a tight spot to parallel park (most spots are tight in an SD), my brakes fade almost completely, giving...

There's a brief glimpse of a light green 116 (don't know if its a D or an E) in the otherwise boring movie 'Blow' with Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz - the bad guys arrive in it just before Johnny...

Climate control runs hot and cold

Hi folks - the climate control in my '80 300SD works well for the most part - plenty of heat, especially in Vancouver Island's relatively balmy winter weather. But every now and then (even when the...

I agree with M.B.Doc- My '80 300SD (299,000k) had exactly the same symptoms. After talking the local mechanic out of pulling the alternator for possible rebuild (MUCHO $$), I got him to check the...
