Proud new owner of 1987 300D, couple questions...
Just became a proud owner of 1987 300D with 160k miles on the clock, the car had over 7k worth of repairs done to it in the past 2 years and that's not including a new AC retrofit. It has a palomino leather interior.
Everything works, even cruse control, no surging. This was a one owner car and I even have an original bill of sale from Mercedes for $42.000! I bought this car after I got rear ended in my 1995 E300D and the car was totaled ![]() My question is it has couple small oil leaks from IP, can the side and bottom seal be purchased somwhere online? I hate going to the dealer. What would be the part numbers? Thanks! ![]() BTW car had #14 head but no overheating, drove all the way from Monterey to Vallejo,CA 2.5h with traffic and 90 degree outside heat with the temp needle never getting past 90!

Congratulations!
What's an AC retrofit? Here's your IP seal shopping list and list price/typical discounted price: 004 997 46 40 bottom cover $4.20/$3.00 001 074 11 80 pressed side cover (gold color) $14.00/$9.90 001 074 37 80 aluminum side cover (silver color) $14.00/$9.90 001 074 43 80 rear cover $12.50/$8.70 012 997 83 48 block o-ring $3.40/$2.40/$2.03 013 997 81 48 ELR o-ring $17.50/$12.60 013 997 09 47 front seal $14.50/$10.20 There's also an o-ring on the STOP lever shaft. MB doesn't list it as a separate part but one of the o-rings on the oil filter cover shaft fits perfectly. Any o-ring you can get in there should work. Phil should be able to get dealer only parts.

Note that the list includes seals you can only replace with the IP off the engine. The side cover is easy to get to. The bottom cover is a bear if the screws are tight. It might help to release the AC compressor from the block and push it aside for better access. Then you'll have a constant drip of oil while the cover's off.
