This is really crazy.

If I use Rock Auto for the 400 SEL and the 400 E it shows the same part by Anchor #8834 (the same manufacturer) for the same price $52.79 , with the same photo. It lists only that manufacturer for the 400 E, and Uro for $33.79 plus Anchor for $52.79 for the 400 SEL .


Pelican parts shows the 2 different parts #s that look identical for the same price of $107.00 They show the same photo as the Rock Auto from a different angle .

The part that leads down to the flat washer is angled

Here is Parts Geek search for the 400 SEL engine mount:

Also here is parts Geek search for the 400E engine mount :

http://www.*********.com/catalog/1993/mercedes/400sel/engine_mechanical/engine_mount.html

You will notice they both come to the same part number W0133-1609862, price $98.75 etc .

** Pelican said the parts numbers refer to different models (400SEL vs 400E ) but I see they both have the same price $107.00

Maybe these parts are interchangeable tween these 2 cars?

Its possible the Annapolis MD Benz dealer charges 2 different prices for the same parts ?

Their $157.50 part says for a 4.2L , 5.0 L 8 cylinder 1992-1995

then their $144 part says for 500 which is same as 5.0 L 1990-1998 .

So whats the difference ? Is this a way to scam or confuse .

Can someone who has access to EPC or some database please see if they are the same part or not
