Am facing the same problem right now any solution

Bro where are you from

Such reliable old cars I have a 20 year old C180 estate bought 18 months ago for £800 with only 72k on the clock when purchased. Only had couple of tyres, brakes in that time, ball joint to pass mot. Not the best on petrol/ road tax but reliability and comfort of drive makes up for it. Feel likes it going to last a lot longer yet. Serviced myself with help of your video 👍

Please where your garage is located in Ireland

Good evening dear members, I hope you are all well. I have a Mercedes Benz C180 KOMPRESSOR W203 2001/3 petrol with 96,000km and it is having a lot of fuel consumption and failure to idle, the diagnostics give the code P0301 and P0304 cylinder misfire detected and I want to change the ignition coil and the spark plugs, I am in an area where I will have to do things myself because I do not have a Mercedes agent etc. 1-I would like to know how many spark plugs my car takes so I can import them and how many ignition coils. 2- The spark plugs thread size M12 x 1.25 or M14 x 1.25, and if you think I need to lose anything else in this maintenance please do not hesitate to give me a tip. If you can recommend a website to buy the material and brands that have a long lifespan it would be a great help. Thank you in advance.

Bonjour comment démonter le refroidisseur d'huile s'il vous plaît.thank you. Best regard

cheers man!

so simple thank you

Thanks

You are so right, my brother from another mother 😮

I had 2004 BMW 330CI in beautiful condition. No CEL No leaks. Everything was up to date. E46 would be the only BMW i would purchase :). They perfectly engineered this engine, and it was really easy to maintain. The only pain in the ass would be your starter and some of the sensors under the intake manifold. Other than i believe E46 competes with any JDMs reliability.

90% of cars are like this…… start ACTUALLY working on the car and tell me how you like it. No offense to my lube techs out there, there’s a difference between simple servicing of an engine and fixing something. These manufacturers don’t think about a fucking soul lmao.

We all love em, that’s why we hate fords and most older Chevy models😂

Also its easy on audi a6 and bmw 5 series and volvo v70 2.4 i5. Two of the first mentioned have oil filter on top and easy to reach. Volvo has has oil filter on bottom and its easy to service.

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Even on my Toyota the oil filter is tucked up above the oil pan for some reason. That one looks nice and easy at least

Do you have a video with removing egr on 1.8 tdci focus mk2 ?

Thank you at which k a timing belt and pump should be changed

I drive a W203 C200K Kompressor that my father used to drive, until he was medically unfit to drive due to his age. It's a 2003 model which he bought in 2008 and was previously used in Japan and had 20,000 kms on the odometer. This is a right hand drive model for Malaysia and the car itself was assembled in South Africa. The engine is the 1795cc version and is supposed to have the same power and torque figures as the previous 1998cc engine (163 bhp, 230 Nm). I've never driven the first generation W203 with the 2 liter engine, but my cousin who has driven one extensively, told me that this car didn't feel as quick to the 100 km/h mark, compared to the 2 liter version. I'm not sure if Mercedes' technical specs for the 1.8 liter variant could be trusted as even if the supercharger's boost pressures are higher than the older C200K with the 1998cc displacement, what are the odds that two different engine models have the exact horsepower and torque numbers? 🤔 Anyway, for a 21 year old W203 my family's car has only traveled 68000 kms but in the last five or six years, its driver side door handle had come off (just like this video mentions) and a few months ago even the hand brake release lever snapped off, much to my surprise. 🙄 We've had an old Mercedes 230.6 (W115) and a Volvo 240 GL before the W203 and neither car's door handles have ever come off, lol. 😅 The biggest headache this W203 is giving me is a current drain problem that empties the battery within 3 days unless I have the engine started daily. Our usual garage hasn't been able to identify the root cause but the interior front or rear dome light is the prime suspect. The car is still with the garage since a week ago. Other migraine inducing issues include the glove compartment CD changer being detected by head unit intermittently. If the battery has been drained and recharged overnight, the head unit will initially play the CD changer but will show that annoying "No CD changer" message after the car has been driven for a few times. The rear head rests have long had their plastic covers broken due to heat from the sun but I can't find replacement parts for them. It's sad that the W203 isn't one of those Mercedes models that are "engineered to last". I've actually spotted more W124 models on the road, compared to the W203. 😐 Thanks for the educational video, just subbed to your channel! 👍🏼

The intake hoses are expensive for what they are. I redid mine with roll of black duck tape. They soon get dull and blend in

You missed a very important one. Camshaft gears and timing chain. The gears wear down to no teeth. You can get away with chain jumping 2 teeth but don't drive it

Yes I have had these, but the worst one is the $12 hose that needs half the engine to be removed to replace a 6" long, 1/2" wide hose which will have split. That job is a heartbreaker! Also the contact plate in the 722.6 transmission. dirty, crappy job and I guarantee it will wee ATF on you at some point!! Oh, and when it is fixed, you need to buy a £149 scanner to tell the car it is OK again. Great car to drive tho!! I have had 3 s203 Estates in a row now.

My Mercedes C 180 doesn't have air compressor box for super charger.Just simple engine.Is that normal ?

❤

Can you please explain better what was the problem? I dont understand what was missing are new engine skates missing maybe?? .. i have to do the same work and will help.

I have a 180c kompressor thanks it have no problems 2003 its chiptune 140pk to 170 pk i love this car thanks fore youre video grtz from South spain Cadiz Benz Cruiser

Great.. any idea how you can send cars in malawi?

hello friend, are those m271 engines good..reliable? I've been thinking for a long time to get a w211 or w203 with this engine.. I'm undecided between cdi 2.2 and ovsj 1.8 compressor, what would you recommend... which are more durable engines? thank you very much

Thanks very much for the video. It is very helpful to see it at my fingertips. I am going to remove the egr cooler to check it for potential passage between coolant and exhaust gas. I have marks of exhaust gas in cooling system and also abnormally high pressure in it. Before I remove head to replace gasket underneath (which is likely to be damaged after engine overheating due to low level of coolant) I will better exclude the egr cooler. In terms of head removal I wander if reconnecting of high pressure fuel line (common rail) will require replacement of any seal or line in total. I am not sure how this system works. Any hints will be appreciated. Thanks.

I've just bought a mercedes c180 kompressor 2007 with both the front door handles broken and glued. I found it strange but didn't argue with the seller. Now i know that it's a common problem 😂. Love from Pakistan
