Does anyone know of a person in the Keene, NH, area who can work on and do maintenance on MB diesel cars? I recently picked up a 1981 300 SD. It runs great and I’d like to keep up with all the required maintenance. I would consider any expert in the towns around Keene, also. The local garage that I use is excellent but does not work on diesels. Thanks much.

Keene isn’t a very big town. You might try some of the truck stops on rt 9/101.

Ask here, there are a few diesel owners from NE on this forum:

Also, the nearest dealer appears to be in manchester.
