For your trans: http://mercedestransmission.com/AutomaticTransmissionInformation.html Read the Diesel link and the 722.3 link. It that does not lead you to the fix, then call and ask sun valley.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Surprising Austrian initiative

I now drive 8 miles to get fluids, food, and not need to have a bag of bags on hand. None of my taxes going to the city of seattle, and the cops actually show up if ruffians are up to no good.

Re: [MBZ] Anyone have any experience with this outfit?
Well I spent $26 and downloaded 511MB of something. It is some sort of MB manual, but it is not a "repair" manual like the 123, 126, 107 CDs. It has some descriptive stuff about various parts and systems, but really nothing on the actual repair procedures, parts, tools, torques, etc. so it is pretty much useless. Really does not have much in the way of "service" info either. Some of the listings make reference to things like "Test and adjustment procedures are described in the repair instructions in Group 91" but then there is no link or info about this reference. I opened a ticket explaining all that, will see what they say. OEM SERVICE AND REPAIR MANUAL SOFTWARE FOR THE 1995 MERCEDES-BENZ SL600...

[MBZ] OT: Surprising Austrian initiative
I never thought that a right of center government would ban plastic. AUSTRIANation to ban most plastic bags starting in 2020Published: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 Austria's Cabinet has approved a ban on most plastic bags, set to take effect at the beginning of 2020. Under the legislation initiated today, Austria's center-right government plans to ban all bags that aren't fully degradable. It also plans to ban the addition of tiny plastic particles to cosmetic and cleaning products, unless the European Union has a solution to that issue before 2020. The government says the planned ban would eliminate 5,000 to 7,000 tons of plastic waste every year. It says that Austria is going further than European Union rules require and that it is joining France and Italy in introducing bans on non-biodegradable plastic bags. *— Associated Press* ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
