3 out of 5 stars Somewhat disappointed   March 31, 2008
I would think for as many of these cars are still on the road, better pictures, diagrams would be available. Text is comprehensive and complete, but lack of good illustrations is disappointing.


5 out of 5 stars Good book   February 18, 2008
A good book like all the haynes manuals I have. Buy a MB shop book if you want the real dirt but this book does well for the usual tasks.


5 out of 5 stars Just what I needed for my car.   May 20, 2007
I knew I got a manual around somewhere, then I figured, why not just get a manual? so I did, and it serves its purpose.


4 out of 5 stars A Good Value For the Money   May 10, 2005

If you plan on doing serious work on your Mercedes, this is NOT the only manual you'll need. It is, however, a useful maintenance reference that nicely fills the gap between the owner's manual and the factory service CD. It's also useful for alternate procedures that don't assume you have the special tools that the factory procedures require. The pictures are clear, and the diagrams are mostly lifted directly from the factory service manual.


3 out of 5 stars Good general manual   April 13, 2004

After reading some of the bad reviews for this manual, I bought it. The Haynes manual is good for the price and compares with all of the other Haynes manuals in general quality. It is certainly better than the other CH****N auto repair manual that uses the same engine pictures no matter what car you have. The manual actually has pictures and diagrams from the referenced car. This manual has enough information for the 123 body style diesel Mercedes owner with average intelligence. The engine / body / electrical and systems information is enough to get you through most diagnoses and repairs. It does NOT cover rebuilding the transmission or rear differential, just servicing (what do you expect for $15.00). If you are going to perform a rebuild on these components, you would be stupid not to have the shop manuals anyway. The pictures are not too clear (B/W) and it could be improved if they had more exploded line diagrams and drawings for the more complex items. Overall this book and Haynes manuals in general do a good job of covering what most of us need at a reasonable price (< $15.00). Try replacing the sunroof drive motor without a manual.
