Other forums and resources you may find useful. - winmutt - 03-06-2008
In no particular order:
http://peachparts.com/shopforum/forumdisplay.php?f=15 Probably busiest MB Diesel forum out there, organized by fuel type ALA MercedesShop.
http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w123-e-ce-d-cd-td-te-class/ 2nd busiest but organized by chassis
http://schumanautomotive.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=19 Super Turbo Forum
http://dieselgiant.com/mercedes_diesel_maintenance_tips.htm Good list of maintenance items, great videos
http://www.dieselbenz.info/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page Diesel benz wiki. Needs work but there are some gems in there
http://mersuforum.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=29 The Finnish board, Not much activity in the english forums but lots of easter eggs if you know Finnish.
Parts:
http://www.autohausaz.com/ Free shipping on $50 or more. Generally best price.
http://www.buymbparts.com/ Free shipping on $75 or more. Great resource for off the wall items like 15mm sway bars.
http://catalog.mercedesshop.com/ Competitive on some parts, also stocks used OEM
http://pullapart.com/ Easily best website for a junk yard I have ever seen. They DO NOT distinguish between 300D or 300SD.
