In the experience of the seller it is the only way it works.
The guys with many questions are not the buyer.
I buy only a truck when i can invest 3 time the selling price to make it ready.
And if anyone has not enough money to finish the project, he looses more money when he must sell the parts of it.

To me a seller who refuses an inspection is trying to hide problems, and knows it won't sell after being inspected. Or the market is strong enough that he can just sell it without be bothered by those details. The truck is on the market for over a month, so the demand is not that strong.

That's right, in december till February is mostly not much demand. I think to, is is a good time for cheep buying

What's stopping you from driving over to the dealer to inspect the truck yourself ?
Europe is a village and distances are small .

I'm in the US. I have a buyer that can go look at it, but it's a big trip for him (expensive for me). I thought an inspection locally would be simple.

I see .
Nevertheless - coming over - combining it with a few days vacation in good old Europe might be cheaper than buying the cat in the sack

buying the cat in the sack

For the non-German speakers: don't buy the pig in a poke, don't make a "blind bargain".
By the way, the phrase "letting the cat out of the bag" seems to be related to the phrase "pig in a poke". When, in former times, a market trader told an unsuspecting buyer that there's a pig (or rather a piglet) in a (closed) poke, but had put for example a cat in the poke, which was a less expensive animal, and the buyer didn't check and opened the poke at home, the "cat was out of the bag", meaning, truth came to light.

Coming back to the original question: I agree that it might be less hassle if you came over to look at some vehicles with your own eyes. If you find potentially suitable vehicles in Germany, you can always ask for assistance here and chances are that there is someone in the vicinity who can come with you when you look at the truck.

I agree with you both on coming to look. The problem is I already scheduled my vacations for next 4 months and really liked this truck. I offered the seller full price pending an acceptable inspection which seemed reasonable. He wants 50k for it, so it needs to be in top condition at that price.

Sprocket, did the seller agree to a test Drive in advance? Then you could head for the next Mercedes Truck Dealer for a technical inspection.
Sorry to provide No more Help. Tho' my grandmother in law was Born in lithuania, i doubt she could be of more assistance than eventually curse the seller...

Good luck and Kind regards
Harry

Where is this truck located at?

Henrik, der steht in Litauen.

Gruß Härry

That truck is gone. The seller was not interested in allowing any inspection at all. Searching again this month.

Any advice on what transmissions are good in the 1990-2000 SK and Actros?

I was told to avoid the EPS in the early Actros trucks. It looks like they used 6sp and 8sp gearboxes from Getrag and ZF.

My focus is on the Actros from 1998-2000 with the straight manual 8speed split.

Hello.. Where do I get this data from VINs? can you suggest web site ?

Hello,

there is no website where you can find the correct information. All free websites have cracked versions with fails . Sometimes you find a big truck an you can read : 15" alloy rims , for example-

I am allowed to use the original Mercedes Truck web parts system. It is to search parts with the correct VIN . Because of this it is possible to find the Datacard in this programm.

Regards

I think, in the Actros you will only find Mercedes-Benz gearboxes.

In the predecessor SK, it might be possible to find a ZF gearbox. But these will be rare, the bigger part of them was also equipped with their own MB gearboxes.

I have never ever heard about a Getrag gearbox in a HD Mercedes-Benz Truck.

Dear Pirx, thank You, Im really relieved about that.

Hmm, in my remembrance, the Daimer-Boxes in the SK were EPS-Boxes whilst manual Boxes were still supplied by ZF :o

Laut Teileinformation hatten die SK der letzten Bauzeit vor der Einführung des Actros (NG88) ausschließlich Mercedes-Benz-Getriebe. Sowohl manuell als auch mit EPS.

Wohlgemerkt, wir reden hier von schweren LKW ab 17 Tonnen Gesamtgewicht aufwärts. Nicht von einem 12-Tonner oder so ...

Is this information in the Mercedes EPC system that people use?

I have a ZF16S190 Manual 16 Gear (4*2+Split) in my 1990 SK but it's a NAW retrofit. So it's possible but not very common

Einen 1729 mit ZF-Ecosplit bin ich auch ein paar Runden gefahren, daher ja der obige Einwurf, die Umstellung auf Daimler-Getriebe wird nicht von einem Tag auf den anderen stattgefunden haben...

Ich wollte nur sagen ausgeliefert von Daimler war ein anderes Getriebe drin (keine Ahnung welches). Das ZF wurde - zwar von einer Daimler-Tochter - nur nachgerüstet. Eventuell ist das bei allen Ecosplit so?

Hello,

Thank you. Do you think these are the “fast axles”?

The specs seem foreign to me compared to last truck that I wanted.

I don't know what a "fast axle" in a 1831 AK means.

What I know is:
- the gearbox has a "fast" high gear (0,83:1)
- axle diffs are 27:18 ratio (1,5)
- axle planetary gears are 3,4 ratio
- total axle ratio is 1,5 x 3,4 = 5,1
