I'd be suspicious of the monovalve (water control valve) for the climate control, they've been known to degrade internally and start fires in W123s.... :eek:

Unless the OM611 is dead/unrepairable why would you want to trade it for the 603? The 611 is superior in efficiency and power. I've driven in one in a S203 Europe, it was fantastic!
