Re: [diesel_mercedes] sun roof advice

 

My '79 (W116) is doing the exact same thing, and has for years.  One FINALLY showed up at the Denver U-Pull-N-Pay this past Spring, and I was able snag the whole assembly (and a bunch of other long-needed items) for cheap.  I haven't yet opened my mine up, so I don't know exactly what happens to cause this....

not available.

What model of 1983 Mercedes?

I've seen it done on Wheeler Dealer(TV) on a BMW I believe. It is not for the faint of heart.

1983 240D 4 door.  I've watched tutorials, know how to disassemble buttttttt sourcing the cable is a problem.

Also need to reaffirm my diagnosis.

I think MercedesSource may have a video and publications on that subject and may even have parts.

My 83 sunroof cable has apparently failed.  Sun roof closes but then
starts clicking before the rear part raises up.  I suspect a new cable
is in order.  Any advice would be welcome.  Apparently new cables are
not available.
