Replacment odometer gears for your w124 w126 or w127 diy repair:
Is the odometer/speedometer in your gas powered w124, w126, or w127 broken? Would it be nice to know how many miles on on your Mercedes? Not having your odometer count miles is really annoying and can hurt resale value of your classic Merc. In about 1 hour with the right tools you can fix that problem without spending alot of money with our odometer gears.
Whats in every Mercedes odometer gear repair kit?:
The three gears that need replacement are included as well as the spacer that keeps the gears spaced correctly. The factory W126 (gas) gears get soft over time (imagine how a stale Oreo cookie would feel when broken in half, thats what the gears in your current broken gauge feels like). These gears are quality made with better then oem material with a quality fit and finish.
On these W126 (gas) sets there are a couple different options for the third gear count. The most common is 16. This is the default number we send. Please check the number of teeth on your third gear to confirm you get the right version. If you do not we will send you the default (and most common) tooth count.
When purchasing our kit be sure to check out our INSTALLATION DIY GUIDE.
