You need to find a differential shop and send them over.
Other than a major component, like a ring or pinion, I can’t imagine they
couldn’t rebuild them back to new.
Let me ask around…

Possibly.
A leak that bad is probably a cooler line if you’re lucky. I’m not sure a front
pump seal would leak as badly as described.

Fluid can leak from the pan gasket (if the pan itself is intact), cooler lines at the trans end or the cooler end, or the cooler itself. Not many other failure points. I’m thinking this probably uses the push-in connection with an o-ring and a clip so easy to deal with, mostly. First question
Doesn't look too awful if you're in the market for a beater ML.

Yeah he has responded to my emails before. Usually telling me to contact
someone here in CA that I or my mechanic have already talked to. But it is
nice to triangulate.

I get it, I hate being stranded on the side of the road. Hopefully you're just
having some bad luck. Of all the cars I see broken down on the shoulder, they
are rarely Mercedes.

Yeah I should think any competent shop could give it a go. But Herbert says
the rebuilt ones tend to fail about as often as the junkyard ones do.
Nobody seems to have the jig they used to determine the pinion position
with the least whine, or maybe it was the shim thickness for the axle stub
Might have once been worth $6, 500.00 Now worth $65.00.

I think I had that same unit in my '85 190D. I wonder what I did with it when I
scrapped the car.
Compared to a lot of modern head units it's pretty understated...

Looks pretty nice, seems to have had a lot of upkeep, except I think the chrome
wheels look wrong. Looks like a spot of rust under the front left turn signal.
No interior photos. Price optimistic.

My 1987 300TD had a whine somewhere aft. So being a genius I replaced the
diff assembly, and it still whined.
Center bearing, only six months old, was talking to me. Replaced it and
viola quiet as can be.
YMMV.

I had similar trouble with my '85 190D. It got very loud before I replaced it
and the replacement was just as loud as that which I removed.
The problem here would be, apparently, the fact that they're so good in the
first place. Remember we're talking about nearly 40 year old cars here. It's
