eta

Hi folks, I am a new M119-er. I was hoping some of your more experienced members can tell me more about the ETA in our engines. I think mine is bad or starting to go. THIS is what it does if I put it Neutral or Park after driving for a little while : I should add that when I got home from...

In the post Don Roden world, finding a rebuilder for your ETA is tough. In January, I had the non-ASR ETA in my 94 E420 that I sold to Alphasud40 serviced by Beckman Technologies of Durham, NC. They calibrated, serviced, replaced parts and replaced the wiring in the ETA. They did great work...

Hi all, let me start by saying that this is for a 1994 SL500. I've had better responses and engagement over here versus BenzWorld so hope this is okay. Short Background: I had a coolant issue a while back that was determined to be due to a leaking heater core. After this was discovered by a...

Hope somebody can give a little insight or advice to a problem with the ETA in my 1993 R129 with ASR (m119.172 engine). The car has been parked over the winter and upon starting the car for the first time after 6 months it went into limp mode. Tried restarting the car a few times and limp mode...

ETA - GAS ACTUATOR (000-141-79-25) problems Looking to buy an ETA for my 1992 500E with ASR. VIN: WDBEA36E3NB728557

Hello guys, need some help with my recently acquired '93 500E. The symptoms: Car frequently goes into Limp-Home Mode. Most frequent LHM occurrence is right after starting the car up, and immediately moving the gear lever to Reverse. The car surges back wildly, I can feel the gas pedal moving...

I replaced my ETA with a $200 used ETA from Ebay. Thanks to Dave who pointed out that the date tag, 02M11, meant that this was a unit that was made in November 2002, with the good insulation -- not the crap MB used to make the originals. The job was much easier than I anticipated. It took...

I'm opening that topic to have some discussion about some last myths to bust on our cars. The final findings will then be posted into the WIKI. - WOT-Signal only at kickdown. Those of you who have Digital scanner/HHT/Star-Diagnosis can see that there is a certain live-data called something like...

I've read now a couple of times that some tuners raise the throttle-flap diameter on our babies from 74mm stock to 80mm. DMS-Tech from Russia for instance do that. Maybe 036 may ask them how and why? http://www.dms-tech.ru/dmstech3.htm How do they do that? I mean machining new butterfly halves...

Per Gerry's request, I have taken some pictures my wiring harness. The idea is that this thread becomes a collection of damaged wiring harnesses, possibly also of other components that fail often. If you have pictures stuff you replaced, please add them here. Hmm, a pity you can't put the...
