Well,the m111 is more solid than the m271 but it is slow and it comes in the prefacelift version of the w203(the ugly one).
Depends on what he wants sha...

M111 was discontinued in 2003. It was in use in the C class from W202 to W203, until 2004 when M271 was introduced.

Yeah, so I've heard. Was aware of its application on the 202. Thanks for the clarification.

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by engrezenwa: 8:11pm On Oct 12, 2019
No big deal. I’m seriously considering the M271 engine; a 2005 C230 kompressor.

I thought it wouldn’t be so nice having to discuss this on this thread. Also, I wanted some experienced person to convince me strongly against it. I have deep love for 4 cylinder, so my interest in that one; also the facelift is so beautiful, reason why I’m not really feeling the prefacelift that has M111.

A friend of mine has the M272; the 2007 C230, 2.5 I6.

I just seek guidance.

If I were you,I'll go for the m272 2.5l v6.
More power,speed but the gear box is different from ours and hence,more expensive.
The 07 has more aesthetics than the 05 too(especially the lights and exhaust and produces an orgasmic sound).
M272 no dey fear flood and is more solid but then again,there is the "balance shaft" defect there.
But las las,something must kill a man!
Do you love speed?
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by happydude: 8:17pm On Oct 12, 2019
So gentlemen does that means that the c230 kompressor on a w203 is not favourable in this country based on the temp , water and oil pump wahala. Pls I need this ride but if it's not worth pls do explain but if we have ogas that have been using this lovely ride for more than 3 years without changing engine pls what's ur secret behind this success. Thanks alot

Well, for me, once the car is able to let me do upto 120km/hr, I’m fine. I just love economy. I hate to be the source of income for petrol station owners.

Balance shaft! Throw more light on that sir. Thanks

And pls how much is their engines n gearbox and what's the most complicated part on the m272 engines

Yes,the M271 is very fragile.
It cannot withstand stress and is very hard to work on,so you have to change it at the slightest opportunity undecided
I have bought 3 of them under a year so I know.
First time I had an incident,it was due to overheat!
If the m271 overheats so much that it stops on its own,sorry it is not coming back!
You must buy another engine.
Second time was flood.
Supercharger intake is so low,beneath the fan so any water that gets in bursts the engine block instantly!no 2 ways about it!
Third engine was due to oil.if oil gets too low and pressure isn't much,the oil pump self destruct immediately and it is impossible to replace and have a good performance,reason I bought another engine.
This one now dey serve me well all thanks to experience.
The legs of that car too is something else grin
It is one difficult car to maintain,honest truth!
But it will give you demonic speed,that is if you love speeding like me undecided

Hehehe. Even Benzedes die-hard fans are complaining of suffering.
Buy yourself a sweet Toyota and end your suffering. Kpatapkata you change your username from logobenz to JesusIsLord cheesy

Which Benz get good leg, how the C320 legs be, is it better than that of the c230k?

Thanks to you and Eddee boss for reaching out yesterday. Appreciate you brothers.

And to everyone who has shown concern, and for the words of advice and contributions, I am most grateful.

I hope everyone would learn one or two things from my story.

The M112 V6 is orgasmic. 224 hp and 315Nm @3000rpm! The movement is crazy.... And you alight at your destination like someone who took a 12km drive instead of 120km... Very comfy...the C320 is also a case study...but not as robust as the E Klasse and Sonderklasse
