[lzamora]

Hi guys,

I'm coming in a few years later on searching for parts and a lot are NLA.... Tried everywhere without success... Does someone here has an Expansion Tank 1245001549 laying around that is willing to part with please???

Picture for reference.

Thanks a lot!!!!!!

PD. Does anyone knows why all the MB sites when looking for 124 parts they throw you to 210 catalog?

That’s horrible that even this part is discontinued. I just bought one last year.

Nooooo way!!!!! I've been searching alll over and shows as NLA... I'm curios if the w126 will fit it? Because that one is available indeed.

Anyone has information or has tried it before?

126 chassis reservoir almost certainly will not fit. There may be some aftermarket (Febi) tanks for other 124 chassis which MIGHT work. Maybe. I don't know, I've never tried.

A standard w124 tank with partsnumber 1245001749 will fit with some minor mods.
Not ideal,but better than no tank if not available .

Tank 124-500-17-49 is for most 124 chassis with M103 engine. The location of the sensor & hose connection are slightly different. Looks like this may still be available per the MB Classic site, although some vendors show "NLA". I wonder if this had been NLA but came back to life? Some sellers on eBay are asking $250-$350 but MSRP in USA is only $53.
