I don't suppose anyone on this board has been with their 240 or 300 d since the beginning. Yet I am curious when the onset of age was apparent in these cars. Did the doors stop locking 10 years from new? The transmission start "flaring" after 15 years? The rough idle until 20 years?
The problems seem so predictable now, we all post in about the same shit. (me excepted because I drag race mine)
But who among us has lived through the aging process of these great cars. Was the first 20 years flawless?
Someone please tell us of the early years, when sun roofs flew open and shut and not a cracked dash to be found.
