Re: [MBZ] 190D 2.2 5 speed mileage

IIRC, a 2.2 5-speed manual in tip-top condition should turn in around 42MPG, best-case conditions. Our 2.5 does considerably worse. There are some fuel leaks, and I believe the timing is not optimal. It's also got the wrong rear end ratio. I think we've been getting something like 35MPG,

Re: [MBZ] 190D cruise control strangeness

The sinking speed sure sounds like a leaking speed reference cap. Whether the cap is leaking or something is draining it, I wouldn't begin to know. Mitch. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe

Re: [MBZ] 190D cruise control strangeness

I would make sure the stalk has been cleaned well, that is, the switch part. If the connection in the stalk switch is intermittent it can cause some weird stuff. -D > On Sep 7, 2019, at 3:50 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes > wrote: > > I am sorting out this 190D and one of the issues

[MBZ] 190D cruise control strangeness

I am sorting out this 190D and one of the issues was dead cruise control.  When I first got it cruise was completely dead.  I pulled the amp and replaced the caps.  It would engage sometimes and will hold for a minute or so then would drop out.  I pulled the amp again and replaced the solder

[MBZ] 190D update

Today I pulled the instrument cluster because the PO had replaced the fuel temp oil gauge with one out of a gasser, so I put the correct one in.  Took car to town to fill it up with fresh diesel and to see if fuel gauge works, it doesn't. I guess I need to pull the sending unit and clean it.

At the factory, they slap a heater(HVAC) unit on a sled, then assemble the rest of the car around it. Removal is the reverse...And then you get to try to put it all back together again. I like 110/111 cars for this reason. They were not built on a sled. Peter Frederick via Mercedes

Re: [MBZ] 190D for sale

Cost is the same as an evaporator, it's in the same box and I don't think you can take it out the front (although I have a dim memory that it may be possible on the W201 chassis). Typical problem is leaking 0-rings on the header seal, and corrosion from using the wrong coolant is always

Re: [MBZ] 190D clutch pedal switch, cruise control

Yes, there's a clutch disengagement switch. Obviously it needs to be in good condition, else either you won't have any cruise, or it won't disengage and will redline the engine when you push in the clutch, trying to compensate for the car slowing down. -- Jim
