    I am going on year 15 years with my 2007 C230 / always garaged so paint, headlights all in very good condition. Repaired the tumble flap on the intake manifold lever that broke with a titanium ball stud. Also did the cam magnets, upper lower coolant hoses and replaced the thermostat/ full suspension refresh.
    Car still runs great so I am in no hurry to replace it. Just shy of 200K miles and I am hoping to run it another 200k (God willing).
    Got the P0022 and researching what might be going on.
    I have your exact same car without the sun roof by the way. Prefer to stay away from after market wheels.
    Thank for the content. Good luck with your car.

      Nice! I'm curious to why you prefer to stay away from aftermarket wheels? n Oil Catch can will benefit this engine to collect oil from going into the intake which causes the tumble flap on the intake to brake.

    Looking at a 2003 c230 Kompressor with 125k miles.... clean title...no check engine light...moderate wear in front seats and brand new rear seats. Is it reliable? Spend tok much gas in my corvette so looking for an alternative for daily driving. Gonna pay 2k. Nice vid. Thanks!!

      I dont know much with the C230 kompressor, i think one come issue might be the timing chain. you could have to look that up on the Mercedes forums or youtube. Mine was not the kompressor. If anything you could look for a C320

    Hello I gave the same car and having some electrical issues I believe, my key fob is not responding to my car and it won’t start for some reason and it’s not my key fob and I’m not completely sure if my car is in tow mode or not any advice ?

    • @HeyboysGarage
      @HeyboysGarage  ปีที่แล้ว

      I never never experience that issue before, best advise I will give is to search the problem and add the word "forum" at the end of it on google. It will pull up a Mercedes forums and i'm sure there is a forum on this issue and someone found a solution. Just to ask have to changed the battery in the key-fob? Disconnected the Battery form the car for about a minutes and reconnect the battery?

      @HeyboysGarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Check engine light if it has one look up the code to see if related to intake manifold or balance shaft. Suspension any shaking on the steering wheel when braking. Other than that just do the normal routine check because I’m sure you are going to be doing a full Tune up servicing after purchase
