Re: [MBZ] E500 slammed on front left

[Allan Streib via Mercedes]

Replying to everyone, Floyd and I have had some emails on this as well.

When the car is running and level, pressures are all 101-103psi.

After sitting two hours, left front is visibly lower, its pressure is about 
70psi. The front right pressure is now higher, 111psi. Rears still a little 
over 100psi.

I have used soapy water on the main pressure line from the compressor to the 
valve block, and the connections at the top of the front struts, no leaks 
evident. I have not yet checked the other lines from the valve block, annoyed 
at myself that I didn't do that before putting the fender liner back in.

New front shock is quite pricy what else can I do to narrow down the problem?

Looks like an ok respray. Door cards are ratty, seats look ok but might not be original. $3k car on a good day if one wanted one that looks halfway decent. --FTSent from iFōnOn Feb 26, 2024, at 11:56 AM, Robert Rentfro via Mercedes  wrote:https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/920875842678323/ Not sure what to make of this. AZBob Sent from Mail for Windows

Re: [MBZ] This is sweet and tempting -- 1987 True 1Owner Mercedes 420SEL 36years owned, $4, 500

Not a great color and a potential money pit.  Better off finding a 560 or
300SD turbodiesel

[MBZ] '87 420SE L

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

Anyone one want a 1987 dark blue (formerly anthracite gray) 420 SEL with a
dodgy history and a list of flaws?  BAT bidders are showing great restraint
and a lack of frenzy.
