Replying to: jamiem4 (Sep 08, 2006 6:24 am) head gaskets; the fuel chit-chat is debilitating: all refineries have the same process for the various octane fuel. Forget the additives bed-time stories.

Replying to: watty73 (Mar 15, 2009 1:50 pm) the change of breaks, exhausts, tyres do not count in the equation of the warranty preservation; only the SERVICE counts (and that in the USA. In Europe, the warranty is not affected if the right service steps / procedures are carried out).   The only thing you will loose will be the Mobilo breakdown recovery (if you do not service in the MoB network)

#85 of 92 Class Action against MB...paid $42,000 for a brand new.... lemon by paulxk1 Oct 05, 2009 (3:01 pm)
I am currently in the process initiating a legal case (with sweet overwhelming evidence) against MB UK and a large franchise dealer.   The case is complex (both insurance and and supported by substatiated evidence.) and the claim is supported by one of the best legal firms in UK.   I am interested to find people out there (USA or Europe) with issues with their MB's shortly after their warranty expired (the famous 50-50 'settlement of the bills) so that I can push for a class action (my lawyers will decide on the base of the evidences)   Transmission, electrics & electronics, steering racks issues, all welcome.   Thanks   Paul   PS I am already checking on Lexus (IS) and BMW (Alpina D3). These are A-'class' cars not C-class...lol
#86 of 92 2003 C230 Oxygen Sensors by startech1 Oct 06, 2009 (7:35 pm)
My garage told me I need to replace both Oxygen sensors.at a cost of $1400.00 I can purchase Bosch Oxygen Sensors for less than $200.00 each. Can they be replaced myself easily and do I have to reflash the memory as recommended by the garage?

Replying to: amrharris (Jun 29, 2009 8:26 pm) I have a 2000 C230 with 93,000 and the engine light came on. Before going to a dealership and getting consumed try the following because it worked for me. I purchased Chevron Techron Fuel System Cleaner and put it in the gas tank when it was almost empty. I drove the car for about one week and the check engine light went off. The reason was the Fuel System cleaner works well to keep the gas clean and as a mechanic told me, it often takes 15 - 20 cycles (drives) before the engine light corrects itself. It took about 5 days for the problem to stop but hope this experience helps.

#89 of 92 Warning light by oosthuyzen Oct 23, 2009 (1:18 am)
I have a C230 Kompressor 1999 model, on the instument cluster there is a warning light coming some times and then not while driving. The idication says BAS ASR, I think it has something to do with the traction control, but are not sure. Any advise.
#90 of 92 C230 Sport, 2006, Air Compressor Won't Run by 06c230sport Nov 11, 2009 (1:08 pm)
My air compressor won't come on. Checked the charge, looks to be in the high range, so not low. Checked fuses, both A/C fuses are OK. Any suggestions, besides $95/hr at the dealership to find the problem?
