Repair CD

What is your opinion of the Mercedes service CD? Is it a good resource, and what you expected? I want a service and repair manual for the 107 chassis, but am wondering if I should go with the CD or try to find paper. I understand the paper is more expense. I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks.....

BD

I have had good experience with my 107 CD. I used it to understand the fuel injection system, replace the auxillary air valve, and replace all belts. I'd highly recommend it... there is bound to be some information that will allow you to be a DIY'er and pay for itself..

I find the CD useful for lots of jobs, despite the fact that my engine (M103) isn't covered (but it is by the W126 repair manual), and I have to make some assumptions about the differences between LHD and RHD vehicles.

Is the cd the same information as the big gray 2-volume hardcopy manual? (Is it worth buying the cd if you already have the other?)
