W124 M119 w/o ASR, Will ASR throttle body work?
Wanting to know if an ASR throttle body will work on my non-asr car? The reman units are about $200 cheaper. Thanks

Thanks for re-assuring me. I ended up finding a cheap used throttle body from a '92. Did some wiring diagram research and the connectors are different, but the wiring is the same. I have no problem spending an hour soldering that in for $ savings.

Throttle Body (TB) purchase of October 2018 -?

The throttle body you write about in your post is presumably for a model w124? What's the going street price range for a new TB such as my application?
With a little "preventive DIY" work, the idea is it will pay in the long term to be rid of all the Bio-wiring. A TB replacement for the coupe is the last of the Mercedes biodegradable wiring experiment.
One such online supplier www.carid.com offers a new VDO brand TB w/ASR for about $500.USD. Additionally, there is an emerging cottage business remanufacturing TB for $275.00 on average.
Any recommendations? Cheers, Mike
