starter trouble
Hello again, well im just curious where the starter for my car is located , and is it a pain to try to replace yourself. I have a 1984 300DT, and the mechanic wants to charge me 450$ to replace the starter... i cant afford that so im looking at doing it myself, i have replaced a starter before, but not on a mercedes. I ws not able to locate the starter bu just looking under the hood. Any advice or help is much apperciated. Thank you again.

It's under the car, on the passenger side, rear of the engine. I suggest picking up a Haynes manual, or the MB manual from MBUSA.
Also search this diesel forum for "starter replacement" IIRC, there is a step by step posted here, somewhere.
