Great source of factory service manuals for a shade tree mechanic
For a shade tree mechanic, working on his own car, finding reasonably priced PDF factory service manuals can be challenging. Some on-line vendors require you "subscribe" and pay monthly fees to have access to more manuals than you need. Others only allow you to download pages - while the entire manual stays on their site. The CrazyAboutMercedes site will sell you a complete service manual for your model which you download to your computer. The price (in Jan.2026) is between $10 and $25, which I found fair and reasonable. Also, there was a very responsive team member (a real person) I was able to contact for answers to my questions and requests. Everything went smoothly and I now have more information about my car than I'll ever need -- and of course, all the information about my car that I will need.
