[W126 Coupe] service CDs

[Steve Nervig]

G'day, Markus.

The W124 CD does have the rocker arm R&I. If fact Group 05 on the  
W124 M103 CD has 26 jobs on it vs only 8 for the W126 M103 CD.

Generally, the CDs have what was available on paper, at the time, for  
that model - although there are a few exceptions/exclusions. Below is  
the list of jobs on the W124 Group 05 CD. Let me know if you what  
something and I can send it/them to you offlist.

Regards,
Steve
