Frequently Asked Questions
Which chassis does this manual cover – W123 or W124?
Both. The 1985-1996 date range spans the tail end of W123 production and the full run of the W124 platform. The manual includes chassis-specific body dimensions, suspension geometry, and electrical schematics relevant to each platform so you can identify your exact vehicle before beginning any repair.
Does the OM601 diesel coverage include injection pump procedures?
Yes. The OM601 2.0L diesel section addresses fuel injection pump timing adjustment, delivery valve service, and governor calibration. Glow plug replacement intervals, pre-chamber removal torque sequences, and cold-start advance checks are all documented with step-by-step instructions and torque specifications.
Are wiring diagrams included for the W124 electrical system?
Full electrical documentation is included – circuit schematics for the ignition, charging, lighting, and instrument clusters, along with connector pinouts, fuse box layouts, and relay charts. The diagrams display wire color codes and ground locations, making fault tracing on the W124’s more complex electrical architecture straightforward.
