(marked as 60301 on nozzle) Managed to find a spare from a friend from a 606.912, (marked as 60105 on nozzle) They did not match completely, different length of “pipe” and slightly different offset Googling made me find some nozzles, and most seemed to be marked as […]

Engine: Bought a om603 engine picked up about 500km from home, the engine has previously been used with a 7.5mm Dieselmeken, but ran great and appears to be in good condition. Took a lot of searching before i was able to find a om603 engine in good condition. Also got a new head, so will […]

Tight fit with a Hx40 Holset a om603 and a supercharger in the enginebay of a w201 Intercooler and intercooler piping removed, one good thing about having a rear-mounted radiator. Head removed, al cylinders had leaks and traces of this in the gasket, will look for a replacement since i suspect crackes in it. Timing […]

The old radiator of the 2.5D turbo w201 (201.128) started to leak quite a bit, there was no way to find a direct fit other than going straight to the dealer. A201 500 91 03 / A2015009103 is the part number, made by Mahle and fit perfectly. The w201 2.5D turbo and the w201 […]

The 8″ speakers in the rear-shelf with a custom-built […]
Had problem with the car accelerating. Would not rev past 2500/3000rpm without jerking violently. Removed the fueltank from the car along the fuelstrainer and was completely filled up with gunk/rust and dirt. Cleaning out the tank and the fuelstrainer got rid of the jerking almost completely, every filter was swapped and we had to […]

EDIT: Have not been able to try this one out yet. —- Just got a package today from DPUK or dieselpumpuk.com and Luke Dale The 8mm Mynä pump has some problems with jerking, its not undriveable, but if inexperienced or if it has been a while since driving, the car will “jerk”, especially in […]
Hello Got a hold of a set of A2204010002 rims from a w220 S-class, 16″ 7.5 inch wide and ET46. This is to high ET to even fit in the rear and it barely fits in the rear with a 5mm adapter, but the front is a no go, definetly. Solved that with a 30mm […]
We have a s124 that now is equipped with a om606.912 engine and a manual transmission the 717.433 It is supposed to be used as something of a daily, and would benefit from some more power. removed the oilpan from the om606NA after a bit of struggle, we first lifted the engine at both the […]
The w115 had a tank hanging below the trunk, and have the fuel strainer hanging at the bottom (the same as the 911 (930) Porsche) The look and design of the filter is quite identical, where the only noticable difference between a gasoline fuel strainer from a w115 and the Porsche fuelstrainer was that the […]

Found an old video of the time we tried the car after having fuelfilter problems, this one was in lower gears and speed, and as one can tell, there was nowhere near enough traction, it was cold tarmac, cold tires, and the air started to get a tad damp. After the first video the tires […]

bright sun, and not good whitebalance, tried on the 15″ hubcaps on 16″ steel rims, 7″ wide in the front 8″ wide in the back. Last picture of the vehicle in my possession, sold to someone living nearby so will probably spot it doing burnouts and drifting around corners.
Front end work, UpperControlarms, aswell as tierods.
The 717.430 broke down, swapped from singlemass setup 717.430 fivespeed to dualmass setup with a 717.412 gearbox from a om605NA w124, ride quality greatly improved, no vibrations, and driveline shake
