W208 cabriolet need help for minor repairs

[Alain Dupuis]

Hi,

I am having some difficulties to source for parts and get some minor repairs done. I would be glad if other owners of W208 can help in that department:

• Some oil under the rear seat seems to indicate there is a leak on the hydraulics of the roof mechanism. The roof mechanism otherwise operates very smoothly. Need to find the leak and fix it.
• The passenger seat folding forward mechanism is faulty. There is no resistance moving the lever upward but you can hear an electric motor noise. Probably need to change the mechanism.
• The gasket on the rear side window is getting loose and damaged. I tried to change the adhesive but it is not good enough. Needs to be replaced with proper parts
•  The passenger door handle, indoor, passenger side is broken. Need to find a replacement part.
• Also need to replace both windscreen water spray nozzle on the bonnet.

My car workshop does not have the manual for this model and they are not able to identify the part numbers. They cannot help with the roof hydraulics either. Your help is most welcome.

Have a nice weekend,

Alain
