W126: Stage One Restoration

Went to the spare part shop this afternoon to grab the following parts:

a) Bilstein Shock Absorber (Front & Rear) - Made in Germany

b) Air Filter

c) Engine Oil Filter

d) Castrol Engine Oil (Semi Synthetic Oil) 10-40W

e) Mobil Gearbox Oil (for front gearbox & rear axle)

e) Bosch Spark Plugs (6 units)

Guess what? The above-mentioned items cost less than RM850 to get them. No way man, the complete set of Bilstein Shock Absorber cost RM440.00 only! Unbelievable! It is lot more cheaper than the shock absorbers for Proton Wira. Got the 4 shock absorbers changed. Oh boy, the ride is so responsive. Let see after changing these items, the W126 will breath better and generate less white fume from the exhaust. *keeping my fingers crossed*
