Yea.. I think i am going to get the fluid changed (in the tranny), just in case... I have never touched a manual tranny before- are they easy to change fluid in? (i'm imagining yes.. but..??) .. I'm just hoping the noise I heard isn't like.. Bearings of some sort going out!
While on the subject of Tranny fluid, Is it true that the Manual Tranny in a 81
240d runs on ATF fluid? I searched the board posts and came with mixed answers?? If so, i may want to try sythetic ATF??


BTW- I've seen "Euro Headlight conversion kits" available from a few sites (they are a few hundred bucks, i know!).. How hard are these European lights to install? ie. would I need to do any modifications to the car in order to get them to operate? (I have heard they sometimes have a "vaccuum operated reflector",- or something that is vaccuum-operated at least..)

Thanks all!,

Miles
