Awesome video Mikey, I was just smiling ear to ear on that ride around the block. Lola the second technician looked majestic on the back seat. Man that wagon is quiet. When you sort the self levelling hydraulics on the rear suspension you'll be impressed by the superb ride. Can't wait 'till you give the old girl a good clean up. 👍❤😎

Great work mike. The fact the rev counter was bouncing when you were cracking it means the crank sensor worked so had done a good job with that. And my theory on the fuel pump relay perhaps you have a bad fuel filter so the pumps are struggling and drawing more current hence the relay being hot and the pumps noisy

Also on the oil light my guess it is probably a wiring issue if you notice the pressure gauge pegs immediately before you even start the car

Looks like the rear suspension might use the brake bombs (accumulators) for leveling and when they go bad they typically bounce the rear end all over the place. Pretty easy to change and not too expensive.

You know? Several years ago there was an infomercial that was selling these abrasive things that you put in place of your pads and they would resurface your rotors, I thought it was a pretty cool idea and would prob be perfect for your wagon in its current state, or any car that sits for an extended period of time. Love the video Mike!

I owned the 96 E320 for years and I can tell that the valve train noise you get is _not_ healthy at all. The engine is supposed to be butter smooth and hum with no mechanical noise. It actually doesn't even sound like a normal engine, it just hums. Only when you floor it and at upper revs it starts growling a bit. If there is any engine vibration you still have one cylinder missing. I had a similar issue at 200k miles and it was the spark plug noise suppressor in cyl 1.
