The w220 is not an upgrade to a very nice condition w140. The fit and finish is on a par with a late model korean car. The value for a very low mile w220 is much under $19k.

Re: [MBZ] another oddball experience with W123 heat
The signal to the monovalve is 12V PWM, and a slow rate. 1 second on to several seconds off, for example. I have a red LED mounted behind the defroster PB on the SEL, so I can see when it's trying to heat versus not doing it. I clearly have a monovalve problem there, but so far its its inability to run well in cold weather, and its seat heaters, means I haven't felt compelled to do anything about it. In other words, it has worse problems that need dealing with first. If the temperature regulation is screwy, check the foam hose. If it's shot the temperature the ACC will be regulating will be the UNDER-dash temperature, not the OVER-dash temperature. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: https://server.secureplusplusfour.net:2083/cpsess595060604/3rdparty/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

None of the online price guides seem to realize that, they all value the 2003 significantly higher than the 2002. I think they just add a few percent to the sedan price.

Re: [MBZ] Should I look at this?
I've been looking for over a month. For some reason the market down here seems to be slow, I'm not sure why. I've got a nice 2001 E55 on the hook, but it's all the way across the country, and I'm not keen about the $1000 it will take to ship it here. I would much rather find something closer to home. I'm under some pressure as the wife's Mazda 6 is getting a bit long in the tooth and I really don't want to put any more money into the car if I can avoid it. Something will turn up. It's just a matter of time... I've got a couple of S320's I'm going to check out this weekend.

There are a couple for sale around here that look decent, but I know nothing about them and they seem to be priced at a premium compared to the W140s.

[MBZ] another oddball experience with W123 heat - update
Guys, I changed the new mono valve insert, which I had obtained from the PartsGeek, back to the one I had in there previously where one could not regulate the temperature via the PBU thumbwheel . . . it would be max heat at the MAX position or almost no heat at any other temp setting. The old mono valve now back in place now, get this, I've got regulateable heat via the PBU thumbwheel now where the new mono valve insert didn't provide any heat at any PBU setting . . . go figure; I'm thankful for miracles no matter in what form they appear. I'm gonna' try sending back the new mono valve inserts to the PartsGeek. I'll bet they're Chinese junk as there are no markings and the diameter of the mono valve (silver) shaft is rather large which causes quite a tight fit. Also, in reference to the multi-purpose (turn signal) stalk which I was having trouble with in my '84 300D and replaced with one obtained on Ebay where the seller indicated that it was a working stalk, I just got done measuring continuities of the 14 pin connector in all stalk positions of my original stalk and, since I cannot get the lo-beam headlight position to lose continuity when gently wiggling the stalk as it had been doing when it was in the car previously (Note: I've since done a quite a thorough cleaning , etc. of the original stalk while out of the car using acetone and DeOxit . . . maybe that's the reason it seems to be working OK? I'll reinstall it in the car to see what happens and try to return the Ebay obtained stalk to the seller, though he has not responded yet but I'll follow the Ebay rules and wait 3 days before contacting Ebay.

Re: [MBZ] List Issues
It would appear the Secret Service staff is lacking adequate outlets to relieve stress. In "political correct speak" they are "working through stress issues using self medication" ... ;)) I respectfully reserve any speculation about the possibility of a state funeral any time in the future.. induced by an "accidental discharge" by an over-stressed Secret Service staff... However, if it should happen, I'm sure President Biden would rush to call it "workplace violence" and make sure that individual was allowed to grow his or her beard according to their religious rules, while drawing full pay. I would like to give a big hello to my NSA monitor who will read this before any of you also.. Some days, when you watch the reported "news" the first thought that comes is"you couldn't make up stuff this weird".

Re: [MBZ] another oddball experience with W123 heat
If the monovalve is OK, and it passes the diagnostic test, then it’s probably one to both of these two things: 1. Your temp sensor is bad (under that little grill on the dash, the grill is actually part of it) and/or 2. the tube that supplies the suction to carry the air past the sensor has deteriorated. I had the same symptoms, and when I replaced the sensor and the tube, my system started working perfectly again. Be careful with the sensor as it is delicate. The tube can be bought at Lowe’s or home Depot: it’s small diameter pipe insulation. Just cut it to length and tape the slit on the side. Jon > On Mar 11, 2015, at 9:54 PM, G. M.

Re: [MBZ] Too Much Heat
Could be either, I've known it to be a bad monovalve (stuck open all the time from a failed coil or stuck valve) AND a bad PBCU.Check the voltage at the monovalve -- if it's always 0, the PBCU is bad or the wiring is open, if it goes to 12V when it should (as in not calling for heat), then the valve is bad.

Re: [MBZ] '85TD interior fan odd behavior update
Try getting a used fan and swap it out. (Car-part.com Should be $25 or less) Could be a bad porcupine also. Max can tell you about testing the porcupine. Basically, power and ground in, modulated power out. should be full power on defrost. What about the tube and sampling fan? is that in good condition? If the computer thinks it is warm enough, you get no fan, no heat. I am leaning more toward the porcupine or the sampling tube/fan. For anyone keeping track, I changed out the PBU with a spare I have and the same thing occurs where the interior fan does not come on when the Hi-speed fan and middle (lower) PBU button are depressed after the car is started but the fan will start when the defrost button is depressed, so it looks like I've gotta' look into the connection(s) to the fan itself.
