Re: [diesel_mercedes] Fender liners (interior panels) for a 1975 240D

 

As I remember they are basically flat panels with rubber seals on the outside edge.  You should be able to find someone to make them if you can't do it yourself.  The seals can be any flexible rubber or plastic that can slip over or fasten to the panel.

I'm hoping the collective wisdom of this group can guide me on how to find fender liner (panels) for my 115 Series 240D. These are the vertical pieces of metal that live immediately behind the front tires inside the fenders & protect from all the debris kicked up from the tires.

I've run down the usual suspects (ebay, pelican parts, Buds Benz, even dealerships) with the same responses 'no longer made / available'

The M/B part numbers:
1158840535
1158840635

I just replaced the front fenders due to rusting out because the internal shields were in bad shape & want to ensure I address the cause to avoid another costly repair down the road.

Any thoughts or advice from the collective wisdom of the group is greatly appreciated.

BERU electronically controlled diesel Instant Start System (ISS)

The BERU Diesel Instant Start System ISS of the second generation with new control unit and additional heating flange brings a further reduction in consumption and emission.

The BERU Diesel Instant Start System ISS of the second generation with new control unit and additional heating flange brings a further reduction in consumption and emission.

With the BERU Instant Start System, or ISS for short, the diesel engine starts as quickly and reliably as a petrol engine, even at extremely low temperatures. Thanks to performance-optimised glow plugs and an electronic control unit which regulates the glow time and voltage of every single glow plug individually. The ISS contributes to a permanently safe combustion process. It also largely prevents warm-up problems, irregular running of the engine, diesel nailing and excessive vibrations.


Technical features

  • Extremely short heating up time (up to 1,100 °C in 2 seconds!)
  • Safe start even at temperatures of -25 °C
  • Electronically controlled pre-heating, intermediate and post-heating
  • Immediate stable idling and clean load assumption
  • Minimised emission of pollutants and fuel consumption in the warm-up phase
  • Specially designed for diesel engines with direct injection
  • On board diagnosis compatible
  • Meets the latest requirements of the strict EURO pollution standard
  • In the ISS of the 2nd generation: suction intake air pre-heating by additional heating flange - further reduction in consumption and emission as well as optimisation of engine running and starting behaviour

Just a guess Nate, but since the attached photos showed brake pads and wheels, I'd guess that it wasn't the brake pads he had powdercoated.
