W201 = 190D/190E, precedes the Cheap Class W202, then the W203 C Class.
The Executive Class went 123 124 210 211.
Note the similarity in chassis names, especially for dyslexics, between
1984-1993 W201 and 1996-2002
Looking at an 89 300e. I know nothing about the gassers and this chassis.
What should I look for? What is too high for mileage?
Thanks, Mike

Probably the most important thing is a properly working fuel
distributor. Parts are getting VERY expensive.
Next is suspension -- that car used the old design suspension links
and they are likely dead if not replaced fairly recently. Not a huge
job, but they drive horribly until you get
And, as best as I remember, there was the aera with the green
wires/harneses. 124 201 alike.
Power to the 123/126 and earlier cars.
Thinking of the adoption of computers in the automotive world makes me weep
(twice the wires, but where do they all go to?).
Yes, now we have ABS, ASC, Traction
I think the bio-degradable wiring came in '90 or '91? Might not be an issue
in the '89, or I could be wrong.

Don; I know.
The '87 EeDee was a suspect.
I think you rode in it.
It as was a cross-over year and I got lucky.
Confusing times.
124's were replaced by 201's.
E300D's were replaced by E300 Compressor's,
And after 1989 diesels were no longer sold in the USA.
Starting with the 190 class, I lost it.
Hans - you've been feeling the flower power a bit too much lately --
I thought EeDee was a '95. Yes, it was a very nice ride!
The 201 came first in '84, followed by the 124 in '86 (at least in the US).
I own both a '90 and '92 300D 2.5 Turbo, so, yes, Diesels were (and still
are) sold in the US.
Yes, you are correct. I am a decade off.
EeDee is a '95 W124. Ex takes good care of it and I still am consulted
(bust my knuckles).
I always thought the 201's succedes the 124's.
As far as the clatta, clatta goes, --- urban myths.

Well I got out to mess with it today. First thing I did for good
measure was change the fuel filter. Made no difference. While running
bad after warm, pulled the OVR to disable FI, no change. Swapped out
the EHA valve, no change. Didnt have any diagnostic tools so Im just
sitting there
Now that it's running better, see if the mileage improves much with the next
tank of gas.

No affiliation. Looks like damage to trunk lid and RR quarter panel.
