Re: [diesel_mercedes] Routine Lock Lubrication

 

All I found in my little town was graphite. These heaters in these cars work soooooooooooooo good. I think I could bake something in my car on the way to town. I didnt know it was that cold in Germany. I had a 63 VW bug what a POS, worst car ever built. Ok, Ok, if you are a California beach girl with Birkenstock s then maybe OK car, but in the north country, no way. Spent my first winter here with that car. 6V I had to get a 8V battery to jump it to start. Pedels froze to the floor as it got to -20 every single year in the 80's. I had to carry a propane solder torch to un stick the pedals. Sure glad someond invented Subaru, national car here back in the 80's, only 4wd car untill Toyota came out with the Tercell. Looking for a mild winter. It's been raining unbelievable for the dry side of Washington. Max

RE: [diesel_mercedes] Routine Lock Lubrication

 

 

You nailed it.  All those WD40 type of "lubricants" attract dust, etc., and jam

up the lock cylinder.  Use a dry film lubricant, that uses a solvent that acts as

a carrier and evaporates.  Leaving behind the dry film of graphite, moly disulfide, Teflon,  etc.

Dry graphite was always the choice, messy, but effective.   Used this type of lube on the

vent / heater cables on the 220D, and wow, what a difference, smooth operation.
