The issue has been tossed around a couple time over the years. The forum is laid out the way it is because so many of the different chassis, models and years shared so many parts, engines and whatnot. Example, the 300E shared the same engine with the 300SE, 300SEL (not to be confused with the W109 300SEL), 300SL. Chances are if someone has a problem with the engine function in a 300E there is someone with a 300SE who has already asked about it and had a viable response.

Often people include their chassis number (ie W124) in the subject thread to help others with the same model find the question/answer.

Make sense?
