Hello All,
I saw this article on CNN on diesel, should interest this group.

So it has 277k. I don't think we'd pay $2200. for it. Maybe $800 if it

We would've been tempted if we hadn't found our 240D. It's got a MN plate.

I'm just guessing here, but I think your problem is due to the nonop vacuum
lock system. IT has the trunk locked which bypasses anything done with the
key. I would think that everything would be right again once the battery is
charged and reconnectede.
Good luck!

No I think it can be overriden with the key, well it can on the sedan models
anyway.

Put the Bracket in the slot at a 90° angle insert the Football under

then rotate the bracket

Thanks, Russ, for the info! I'll see if everything is there (probably have

couldn't imagine riding around in a 240D after having a big SD for any
