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 95 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 Replies to this message: kellirob (Dec 08, 2009 5:06 pm)
#86 of 95 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 95 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 95 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?
#91 of 95 Re: Changed Batt now SRS code shows [art30] by sportdrvr Nov 17, 2009 (5:47 am)
Replying to: art30 (Jan 04, 2009 9:57 pm) Before changing a weak battery, computer wasn't allowing transmission to shift, among other things. New battery cleared that but now hazard lite and master door lock buttons don't work and mechanic can't reset service due readout in spite of using his 'key'. Instrument motor(s) were acting up too, but don't hear that now. SRS lite on too, which traces to driver's buckle, although seems ok.
