Mercedes-Benz S-Class . Super running car with low original mileage. Evaporator was recently replaced along with all climate system vacuum elements. Some recent work includes drivers door and trunk lock vacuum elements. Radio and amplifier has been rebuilt by Becker Radio and upgraded by them with Bluetooth option. New engine mounts. I went crazy and replaced all the major A/C and cooling system components while the car was apart for the evaporator. New Condensor, compressor, accumulator, radiator, all new heater hoses, heater valve, etc. All it needed was the evaporator and all the parts taken off are available for inspection.A hard to find car to begin with and impossible to fins with this mileage and condition. Please ask any questions.

I had taken the compression readings of the cylinders when I first got the car.
CYL 1 460
CYL 2 440
CYL 3 430
CYL 4 430
CYL 5 440
CYL 6 430
Good compression is 377 to 464 so compression is good.
I did a lot of this stuff just because I like to have it perfect. The car is in excellent shape. It sits a lot and when I last drove it, I noticed a slight vibration and took it to two places. Both told me that it was flat spotted tires, so it needs new tires to be 100%.
My mechanic is a diesel nut that used to work for Mercedes corporate, going to the various dealerships to help mechanics solve difficult issues. The car has been very well maintained. There is nothing wrong with the car other than needing fresh tires.
