The cold weather has caused the display to malfunction. it shows a blotchy area around the degree centigrade text if that makes sense. Can the display itself be replaced? Les

hmmm, not so sure about that, mind you, change the grill and it'd look nice I think!......:)...

Hi New to board and question on latest car that I'd appreciate some help on, a 2004/04 C230k Avantgarde Saloon, bought earlier this year with 25000 miles on from main dealer. Now at 36000 miles and shortly needing a B service, questions are - Belt or timing chain - what does it have, does it...

Here's my baby: When i bought it, it was a pre-face lift, i'm slowly turning into a facelift (or better). It has climate control, cream leather interior, heated vanity mirrors, outside temp gauge, and a whole lot more that i really cant be bothered to list! So far: Full alpine sound...

Hi Guys, Next mod to the car is going to be a larger crank pulley next month. I have sent an email to ASP Racing, and recieved the following response, but it makes little sense to me other than saying they cant supply it!! :crazy: Has anyone done this mod to the 230k engine, he suggests...

When started at ambient temperate "from cold" the revs initially rise to 1,400ish and then stick persistently at 1,200 for a minute or two and thereafter gradually over the next minute or two reduce to around 800. I think this is wrong. Why? Because before around 2 years ago, the engine...

Hi all, Looking into the purchase of a 98/99 C-Class 240 or 230K Sport to replace my 2005 Cooper S (with al the bells and whistles) it appears the C230K could be a good option for me and servicing/fuel costs also seem a little lower than the 240. Just wondering what people's opinions are...

Hi All, I decided to write this up to show and explain how a Kompressor (supercharger) from a C230 K W202 can be repaired after the bearings from the clutch failed. The total cost of repairs were only £120, other options were to replace the whole of the kompressor with clutch costing about...

Gents, Some advise required from anyone who has done this.....On my car, the W202 C230K, when you go to replace the V belts do you have to remove the fan ? The reason I am asking is the lower tensioner that does the belt for the supercharger looks a bit tricky to get to with the fan in...

Hey all If anybody knows of a thread that explains how to remove the spoiler off a W202 C230k Sport or have the instructions for this please help. See pick of rear in signature.
