 Rating:  - Mercedes-Benz: Coupes/Sedans/Wagons 1974-84 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual) This book is of no use if you own a diesel model.There are only a few pages that mention anything about diesels and they are vague. Rating:  - How to get good ideas to repair your MercedesIm driving a Mercedes 280SE 1979, and that kind of book gives me ideas and help to repair it. I think its very intresting to get information for maintenance and reparations; nobody is better to repair your own car as your selve! (Sorry, my English is terrible!)

Rating:  - Don't get your hopes upThis book is not all that bad. This is better than the Haynes manual any day. Its problem is that it is too vague. The only things it covers are the basic mechanical aspects. If you are having problems with say the vacuum system for the door locks on a 79 450sl, there is nothing. They lead you to believe that they have complete vacuum diagrams. In fact, most of the vacuum system is NOT covered. Browse for similar items by category:
