Thanks for the welcome. I was on the MBZ.Org email list for several years absorbing the wisdom of Dr. Booth but couldn't keep up with the traffic volume. I have owned MBs for over a decade now and forums like this help keep them practical. As you can see, I have a completely Diesel Fleet. May be parting out the 240D. My attorney is fighting with the other driver's insurance company (Hartford) now (my son was driving but it was not his fault). There first offer was $650 - Hmmm, I don't think so. Good engine, only 80k on a rebuild. Only about 60k on the rebuilt automatic. Collision cruched the front only, but over $10k to fix. I hope I can sometime contribute more to the forum. Many people here are much more knowledgable than me..
