I can tell you one thing: you are going to want a real scan tool, not
just a generic $100 OBDII code reader. I've been
Mobil 1 formula M (only), yeah, it's full FSS. With the proper filters and oil

Yeah, get yourself a thinkpad T30 (nothing newer), and a star diag type
multiplexer; if you don't get the real deal, make sure that the mux you buy has
circular connectors on the box; avoid the d-sub ones.

I'd rather
I have an older Auto Enginuity scanner without the specialty Mercedes
software and it works fine on our 99 E300. I put it on a 10 year old
laptop. You need a serial port. The newer bluetooth one looks nice,
but with a cable I'm less likely to leave it behind. They have been
good with providing

I have not let her back in the 140 diesel yet since I put it back
together. I guess I will take over it.

I've both. There are insane amounts of stuff that the aftermarket tools cant
do; transmission temperature comes to mind, as does HID headlight aiming...

I was at one of my dealer customers today and spotted a silver 99
E430 in the back they just took in on trade for a little old lady
on a Cadillac. I asked them how much figuring on about 6k maybe
and they said they would wholesale it to me for 3k. I stroked
them a check on the spot. Its
Wow, a nice, cheap late 90's MB! Score!

Funny how new is relative. I was talking with a friend recently about
an '04 van I was thinking about, and he was amazed I'd consider buying
something
Yup...regular people don't get it. Aside from my '83 Subaru and my '98 F150
(both were new purchases), getting my '05 E320 in '08 was as close to new
as I care to get.
