Re: [MBZ] w124 dash swap evaporectomy

I think the book rate is more like 14 hours? If I were to pay someone, I'd budget at least $2k, and I'd find an independent mechanic who works on the "classics" because most dealers probably don't have anyone left who has been factory trained to work on these cars. I think you'll really just

Re: [MBZ] w124 dash swap evaporectomy

Really depends on your goal. I would imagine a used dash in good shape is far less expensive than a new dash, but you'd need to check with Classic Center or MB Northlake to get an idea on prices for new. The risk with a used dash is condition: Is it just about to start cracking? If you can

Re: [MBZ] w124 dash swap evaporectomy

So I should give this experienced mercedes mechanic the 1100 he is asking I guess. My guy here in LA doesn't even want the job. Easier money to be made I guess. What do you all think about installing a new vs used dash? On Nov 5, 2015 7:18 AM, "WILTON via Mercedes" wrote:

The M120s have a reputation for being tough to bleed. That's one of the reasons why the dealer uses the vacuum fill when they flush and fill. For $1100 it worth more than that in parts. Dan Sent from my iPad > On Nov 5, 2015, at 3:45 PM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes >

HF has a good sale on a sawzall type recip saw. You'll spend more money on a selection of good blades than the saw! HF Item number 61884 or 62370 or 65570. Use coupon code 86208239 That makes it 25 bucks. Yes, It has a cord. I recommend buying the lenox bimetal blades They start sharp,
