Sunroof, air deflector spring - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Jim H · #1 08-30-2000, 08:22 AM

My '85 300SD (w126) sunroof's air deflector no longer pops up. Roof opens and closes just fine. Is there a spring that broke and can be replaced? Is this DIY?

Or, for the $$ should I either not open the hatch or live with the increase in wind noise?

I just replaced my two "springs" for under $10.It is a DIY job but, I have the manuals which I highly recommend. However, my car is a 300E but, it should be similar.
Good luck!
