1987 190D 2.5 Turbo Guys I have run out of ideas on finding a condenser for my 2.5 Turbo. NOWHERE on the internet can provide this condenser. I've even called local Atlanta Mercedes dealers and the part is no longer available.Gasoline 190s.....no problem. Even a NA 190D....no problem. Add the Turbo....big problem. I'm to the point of reconfiguring the twin aux fans to the single fan setup on the gas 190s. Is that possible ? The condenser on the Turbo is unique because of all the mounting tabs for the twin aux fans. Anybody got any ideas ? I've tried to find a donor car with a used condenser but no luck there either. I'm sweating this out in Hot Lanta !!

worth a shot-

good luck, chuck.

You may have to go with a custom setup using a universal parallel flow condenser. It'll give you better performance that way if you are using R134a instead of R12. The other thing to see is if the 2.6 condenser is similar enough (it uses the twin fans as well, and the later ones are not parallel flow but use the smaller tubes designed for R134a) or one off of a W202 (which is already parallel flow).
