Eddee: This is too expensive. I recently worked on my front legs. Linkage and stabilizer 3800 for the pair. Rear shocks 5k each front 23k the pair. For c320 though 1 Like |

Buynowautos: This car looks like c230k....snap the front seat and dashboard/entertainment area, let's see. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Chelseafan1: 3:52am On Jun 22, 2019 |
jceesquare: Even my c230k that saves fuel can't be compared with a Corolla. Corolla no dey chop fuel at all at all, that car mad. If I use 2k fuel for a 100km trip, Corolla will use 1k fuel or sightly more for same trip. |

Chelseafan1:Buy brand new. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by weyreypey: 5:47am On Jun 22, 2019 |
syntax50:Check the coil for the misfire. If I am correct, same coil serves the two cylinders |

Chelseafan1: The shocks are very firm and comfy. I changed the sway bar because the old one's brackets were weak and nobody was willing to sell a complete set of brackets and bushings alone for anything less than 60k. It's a 4matic, parts are unnecessarily expensive, yours shouldn't be that expensive, used OEM 4matic coils on Ebay or even Amazon will set you back well financially. |

Buynowautos: 4matic parts are expensive, and when they start falling apart, ESP malfunction error will torment your dashboard until they are fixed. Cc: chelseafan1 these prices should guide you. 1 Like |

syntax50:Driver side signal repeater should be 12k max. There is no disadvantage using the " manual" compressor...it's more solid than the automatic. Misfires can be a lot of things...plugs, coils, nozzles, airmass. Good luck. 1 Like |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Eddee(m): 8:01am On Jun 22, 2019 |
Chelseafan1: Nothing slightly above 1k, more like #800-900 fuel - there's been artificial fuel scarcity in Calabar over the last two days or so. Drained about 10 litres from my generator and I've been using it to catch trips in a major way. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by shortgun(m): 8:02am On Jun 22, 2019 |
Buynowautos:I confirm your quote is correct..can even be cheaper. |

shortgun: It exists, this you may be negligent about it. Even in Nigeria it exist. Driving on speed in the wet and in slippery muddy roads or around SE, SS highways where you have lots of twists. The 4matic keeps it's composure while the RWD may become very snappy and temperamental 8 Likes |

kingreign:This doesn't make sense Who drives on high speed on a muddy road or when it's raining?... unless u r on a suicide mission. The 4matic will still skid and veer off the road if you break abrutly on high speed on a wet road. ESP is standard in all models to prevent spinning, slipping...e.t.c 4matics were developed for areas with heavy snow that requires good traction to move the vehicle..even in Europe/America people who don't have snow problem dont go for 4matics. |

shortgun: But most C300 I see around are 4matics. Even the 2010 to 2018 models |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by sacramento1212: 4:29pm On Jun 22, 2019 |
Chelseafan1: I've not even seen a C300 that isn't 4matic. It seems it comes standard on them except for C250 and C350. To even get the C350 sometimes can be difficult because it seems that wasn't manufactured much when compared to the C300 1 Like |

Eddee: Lol, Corolla is bae abeg.... I just did a 204km trip at 8 litres/100km with my c230k, I'm sure Corolla would have taken not more than half the litre for same distance. |
