Heater blower motor

[80MPH]

Does anyone know where I can get a blower motor for my 1985 300 D? The blower works intermittently. If you push up on the bottom of the shaft of the motor it will work for a while, then it sort of poops out. Acting like failing brushes, but I sure you buy brushes. The dealer wants way too much for a new motor. Thanks, if any one has one for sale.

Go to NAPA online. There is a Bosch Blower Motor for about $152, #ATM 0130111103.
Be sure to check with them so you get the correct one.

However, My 84 300D did not have a Bosch Motor and Siemens was marked on the Plastic Blower Housing.
The Bosch Motors have the Brushes in the Rear.

Also some people do replace the Brushes. You can buy Brushes from ACE Hardware and sand them down to the correct dimensions.
