PPI Recommendation (Los Angeles 90024) 2.3-16V Specialty
I'm considering purchasing a 190E 2.3-16v in the LA area but would like to have a PPI done for peace of mind. Can anyone recommend a shop in the area that KNOWS what to look for and how to work on a W201 16v? Thanks in advance.

The problem with going to a dealer with an older Mercedes is that many of the service advisors aren't familiar with the older cars, let alone the special needs of the 2.3-16.
The former parts manager for Caliber Motors, Tom Hanson, now works at the Mercedes Classic Center in Irvine. You might want to call him and ask if he can point you in the right direction. 949.598.4842
