How true, how true dtf, I was just wondering what those wires are for. New and strange noises in my Benz do tend to cause me to investigate them, it's too good of an automobile to ignore minor problems. It'll take me a couple of days to change out the other parts I bought yesterday then an almost perfect Benz for my daughter to learn to drive in.
