Welcome Mercedes Benz
Enthusiasts!
A site for Do It Yourself repair of the S600 V12 W140 Mercedes Benz.
Articles with pictures
describe how to perform repairs and guide you in an easy to understand
format.
|
|
The
purpose of this page is to share repair information with other 1995
Mercedes Benz S600 owners, or anyone else that finds this information
useful. Lots of this info applies to all W140 models in general. This page
is a work-in-progress, and I add to it as I gather info. |
| My
hope is that the lessons I learned are of some help to those that need it.
Keep in mind that there may be better ways of doing what I'll show you.
Some of these projects may apply to other W140 models as well, but I can't
guarantee that. |

Thanks to all

Please! Always use caution when working on a vehicle. Proper tools and
equipment are a must, as are the use of safety glasses and other protective
gear. Never place yourself under a car without the car being supported by jack
stands or suitable ramps.
Part numbers referenced in my write-ups are for a 1995 S600, 140.057 body and 120.980
(V12) engine.
(Please note that some repair articles are for other year models)
Here is a valuable tip for anyone
planning on doing their own work...
I bought a 120.980 (V12) engine manual for $160.00
when I first got my car. Needless to say, it covered the engine only. Alldatadiy.com has
everything my manual has, and far more. One of the most useful
things is a complete listing of all recalls and technical bulletins. You'll be
amazed at how many there are! I strongly suggest you purchase a
subscription to Alldatadiy.com. It has a wealth of
information for the W140 Mercedes Benz (and you're going to need it), as well as other vehicles. With it you get access to test
procedures, electrical and vacuum diagrams, service bulletins, recall
notifications and more. The cost is very reasonable. If you sign up for the service using the link below, I
receive a small commission which helps me cover the costs of administrating my
site. Thanks!
