sorry with my poor 20 yr old diesel it is a whole different story so i do all i can myself
I agree with ya, I would definitely consider doing it. But... it is winter here and I am driving it on nice days, don't want to put more miles on it past that 60,000. Also I work quite long hours and really don't have the time to put into it. I used to do all the work on my cars, including my old 300E, but I just don;t have the time to get my hands dirty anymore.

I may save a hundred bucks or so on my indie, but I think the dealer is the best route to go. At least if something happens to the trans or somethng else I have the service documented. Plus I like to see what I am paying for, and that nifty 3 cent phamplet that listed all the services they are doing really won me over.
