1985 w201 5 speed part #

i could not get the hood open at the u pull it yard, but the transmission is in and the car is manual.

5 speed 1985 190e 2.3.

please tell me it can handle the "power" of a 240d and bolt up with not too many issues!

thanks a lot!

my understanding is that ransmission has the starter on the left of the engine while the W123 has the starter on the right side.

i have no reason to not believe you about this.

i just want a manual in the car(240d). lately i am putting a lot of work into it to fancy it up a bit(new veneer, seat heaters, amp/sub) and i dont want to change cars completly over again!

would i be a burden if i asked what transmissions will interchange with my automatic/616 engine?

i see a w123 part number on an early w201 car on some parts website, but i can trust youall more than "www.anotherbenzboutique.com!"

any 240D manual..adn I believe the 200D and the 220D from the early 70's.

You are better off finding a 240D parts car with a good trans so you get the other goodies you need to do a swap. IT will have everything you need.

Those are the 4 speeds.......5-speed 240D or 300D Euro transmissions are as rare as hens teeth...and priced up there with gold egg laying geese.
