Mercedes 1993 300 TD Wagon
Some help with my suspension
Hi,
first of all I would like to say that this forum looks quite good and as helped me quite a a lot over the past few days.
I have inherited a MB; it's a 1993 diesel W124 manual transmission 300TD station wagon (7 seater). Could anyone enlighten me about the fact that it has or doesn't have a turbo. I mean it says TD (Turbo Diesel??) but don't seem to find it near the motor. So if anyone could help me out... (there are some photos at the bottom of the post)
But what I came her to ask is the following: My rear suspension is bouncing quite a lot. I've seen the hydraulics pump and it has oil, just got to confirm is there is disturbance when the motor is on. I have been reading through out the forum and everyone points out the accumulators are gone. The car bounces about 3 or 4 times when I go over a bump or something of the sort. But then when it's stopped and I try to make it bounce with my foot, the suspension is quite hard. So I have decided to get some new accumulators, but when browsing through some online stores I can't find the accumulators anywhere (I find them, but for climate control???). I've tried these sites:

So here are the questions:
Does it have a turbo?
Are the accumulators "dead"?
What is the other name for those accumulators?
Thanks!
