W126 Manuals
Ok, after countless hours searching and reading the reviews of the different versions of the FSM's, where the h*ll do I get actual service information?
I've already bought 3 different versions of "service information", and they all suck. I have an '85 euro 380SEL, and I want real service info, not a bunch of crappily scanned pages. I'll even take them in german, if I have to.

service manuals
I bought two manuals on eBay ($110).
Service Manual Chassis and Body Model 126, Volume 1 and Volume 2 I recognized the pages from the MB W126 CD I had bought earlier (crappy scanned version). Difference is I can read these very clearly and I can thumb through the relevant pages at the car, rather than going back inside to the computer (laptop really doesn't cut it either). Best $110 I've spent. Not sure if there are other volumes, but these two are great!

The service manual - this has different stuff than what comes on the star service CD, right?

I don't know what a star service CD has on it. I have the MB service manuals on CD and they're basically the same as the books but the books are easier to read and the pics are clearer

I have the MB factory chassis manuals for the 123, 116, and had them for the 114/115.
I have never seen anything better. They are worth any price, but I own all mine for less than 75 per set. I also found the engine manuals for the 4.5, 3.8, and for the 61x diesels. All are excellent resources. If you want to search craigslist a region at a time for them use: crazedlist.org It will NOT work with internet explorer though. Works on Firefox.
