It would probably be a good idea to go ahead and change the transmission filter too.

I got tired of my '94 S500 coupe just sitting in the garage. Last year, I believe I put on apx 300miles!!

It's Nov, 2019 and this thread keeps going! .. Like the C140!

I've driven my ’94 S500 coupe for 20 years . . . and it’s now 25 yrs old. It’s been the most reliable Mercedes that I’ve ever owned and the maintenance costs have been low.

The last few years, the car mostly sat in the garage . . . until I got a 'spark' to get her back into top shape.

My last post in this thread was with 119K on the car . . it's now 126K. These are the repairs/improvements made since the last post . . .

1) Fixed the wiper blades for both windshield and headlights; $30
2) Radiator flush using just distilled water; $30
3) Oil change + filter; $75
4) Replaced poly-belt; $40
5) Replaced spark plugs (apx 10+ years old!!); $18
6) Replaced both side – distributor caps and rotors (apx 10 years old!): $150
7) Replaced both accumulators and hyd fluid flush; $600 incl labor - the diagnosis and repair thread is here; shows that you can 'repair' struts!
8) Found and repaired ohmic connection to Aux Fans . . . no low speed; $0 - Repair thread here
9) Replaced windshield washer fill tube and grommet; $30
10) Replaced 12yr old tires . . . w/ Michelin Primacy; $800 - Tire details here

Read all stored codes (DTCs) and there were just two (2) codes . . .

. . . . and it's still in the garage.
