Yeah, it beggars belief doesn't it.
This was a well-regarded Merc specialist, too, with 4 other W124s in for work.
The only records I have of them being changed was in 1997, but the history is not complete. It took 2 pages of Internet advice on MBClub forums to narrow it down to 3 possibilities. I'm so glad it wasn't the EHA valve. Those things are pricey.
