Handbook & Manual
Hello folks,
Having recently acquired a 1999 G300 Turbo Diesel from Germany, can anyone tell me where's the best place I could get my hands on both a vehicle handbook and workshop manual - in English ?!!
For the workshop manual becoming a paying member of the GWOA.
As for the user's handbook maybe Mark or David Watkins have one for your G... they both have or had a G300TD.
Thanks Mortinson,
I am a fully paid up member, therefore who can I contact regarding a workshop manual ?
I will speak to Dave when I see him next, thanks again.

I Haven't been able to get an English owners manual. I was told that if there was enough demand, MBUK would have them printed.
Thanks Mark, did MBUK say what numbers we would be talking about for them to go to print ? Other than that, do you know if the G300 TD was sold in any English speaking countries (other than the UK) ie; USA or Australia ?
I think you could find all manuals for G wagen on this location
http://www.4x4abc.com/G-Class/
but must pay for every manual
Thanks for that. I have contacted this company quite a few weeks ago, but I've had no reply so far.
Contacted them in the past and no reply as well.
Yes Fred, It's been some weeks now and nothing ! I'll resend the e-mail and try again. It's such a shame as Harald advertises that many manuals, that I'm sure he's got exactly what I'm looking for !
Cheers Gavin
just my two pence worth.....but i have dealt with h in the past and bought manuals ok, but the frustrating thing is he doesnt have all the manuals that he lists!!!
some of the gearbox manuals he has had listed for the last three plus years he doesnt have and has never had, but still keeps them listed!!!!
I think that the GWOA should get the service of supplying workshop manuals up and running again... I remember all these being available to members for some £ 15, whereas the cost of buying them from Harald is too dear!
As for the Owner's manual, I am afraid that the one for the G300 Turbodiesel is extremely difficult to get... in the meantime perhaps you can make do with these scans of the earlier 463 G:

Another nice link with Owner's manuals for classic Mercedes dedicated to that Mercedes nutter every GWagen owner has inside himself:
Thanks for those websites Mortinson, I shall keep persevering with Harald though ! Someone did say that MBUK would contemplate reprinting manuals if there was enough interest, but I couldn't confirm what kind of numbers we were looking at ?
I seem to remember that at the AGM this year, the subject of workshop manuals was briefly mentioned. Did`nt one of the commitee members say something along the lines of there were none available in the club. I hope someone can clarify this.
I know they used to be available from Mike Lily who was? still is? tech rep.
