I need help from Euro users

i have an euro 1985 16v and need the front and the back flexdiscs but the dealer and fastlane tell me they dont have the part avaliable for my car because of the chasis number thay say that there is a replacement but no one has been able to tell me the new part number, they say production at Germany is over and the no one has the new part number. I hear that its like from the 124 chasis but no one is sure, if anybody can help me please id be a very happy man, heres my VIN 2010341A207091

You need to find a really GOOD MB parts counter man that is motivated to help you. I used to have one at an MB dealer in Plano. His name was John Vinson and he could and would find ANY part for ANY Mercedes. Unfortunately this great guy ended up retiring with health problems.

It all has to do with attitude. You find the right parts guy wi8th the right attitude and he will find your answer.

Good luck,

I have a couple of suggestions. You can search on the net and find a number of European MB parts suppliers. Ones in the UK are most likely to speak English (kind of). In the US, Europa in Santa Fe used to have access to the European parts database. The last time I talked to them, I was told MB took away their access to that material. Euro-Tech Services has access to European parts--at least to truck and Unimog parts. They also might have access to automobile listings.

Hi there.

Denmark is the place to find w124 chassi parts.

Where the heck is Denmark???

Its a Kingdom placed right om top of Germany/ Northern Europe/Scandinavia.
We have large taxes on cars, nearly 180%, thats why most MB in Denmark is worn out Taxis or imported older models.
You see a lot of w124 with 400.000KM + on the meter in this country.
Thats why you can get spare parts here.

Try this place: www.autoimport.dk

Sorry its only in Danish, byt see the spareparts index here with pictures:

Futhermore we are only about 5.2 Mill people in Demark, so we do need to learn other languages, most Danes do speak English.

Try give em`a call at phone: 0045 4821 7870 or Fax: 00454827 8407 Mailto : lager@autoimport.dk
