level

Does the facelift 211 come with an oil level sensor? mine does have a dipstick (red top). Checked via the dash and it comes up with a blank where it calculates the oil level? and it should show the number of litres the car is holding. I checked my car after I had been out and it was just...

Just fitted a new cluster and it has the oil level ready. What is fitted to the engine? Currently have a dip stick

I am going to change the oil on my w203 C180k using the extraction method. can anyone tell me is it better to raise front or rear of car (park on slope) or leave car on level to achieve the greatest amount of oil from the sump. Will be using 10W- 40 as per dealership on last change. Any...

Went out to my car yesterday and realised the high level boot brake light had fallen into the recess and the plastic lens is missing. I am not sure if its just fallen off (lots of posts this this effect on the net) or if someone has tried to break into the boot. Does anyone know where the...

Just got Vito back after first service, I checked oil level and found it was not filled to top marker on dipstick. Is this considered to be acceptable or should it be filled to top marker? I queried this with dealer and this was the response; The workshop agree that the oil level showing on...

May seem a daft question, but I am new to my W211, and am 'disappointed' to find the car feels still feels heavy despite the dealers being unable to find anything wrong. The reason for the question is that I know that Skoda Octavia VRSs for example, have 'hidden menus' in their ECUs that allow...

As I've been driving down the motorway today this message flashed up 'check oil level at next refuelling'. The car is 6500 miles away from a 'C' service, so could this be anything to do with the Brabus box? This is my fourth 211 and I've never had that come up on the dash. :confused: I...

Hi, the coolant level light is on in my 1995 c200, i assumed that the coolant level sensor was faulty so i replaced but the light is still on. Anybody have any ideas? thanks, steve.

I had a fantastic response to a previous query whereby the auto gearbox was dripping and leaking its contents. A local excellent independent discovered a bush was loose and tightened the bolt thus stopping the leak. They didn't have the MB "dip stick" to be able to check the oil level so, with...

I have suspected for a while that my transmission is low in fluid. The car doesnt come with a dipstick and mb want silly money to check it. So i have acquired a dipstick, looks homemade, but it reaches the bottom of the gearbox. The min and max lines have been worn off - can anyone tell me the...

hi guys going to change the aft in my w203 2001 270cdi how much oil does it hold cheers up2u

If anybody has one for a 2003 saloon, then as mine is cracked would be interested! Thanks

Hello MB enthusiasts, I have recently bought a 2001 C220 w203 car. I know that the oil level can be checked on the dash board, but I would like to check it manually as well and I have therefore bought a special oil level indicator tool. Long (1 meter) flexible thing. But where should I insert...

Need a c-class 180,2002 high level brake light which fits into the boot.

Might anyone know how to check the gearoil level in my car ? year 2000 vclass auto gearbox says zf on it. No sign of a dipstick in the box. I was driving home when the gears randomly stopped changing up then will after moving to neutral with a big clunk. Then while shifting up it might...

Hi, I have a W211C280 CDI does this have a low oil warning light - I can't see anything in the handbook to suggest it has?

I think I have a faulty windscreen washer reservoir sensor. I have good ground at the plug and about 5v at the plug. I have removed the sensor and measured the resistance with a multi meter, I thought it would be a straight on and off when inverting the sensor but when in the 'full' position I'm...

Hi My C240 auto intermittently brings on the red warning light saying excess oil visit workshop. However...If I do the oil level check it says oil low please add 1 liter of oil. I do not have access to the a flexi dipstick. Is this likely to be a sensor that is shot? Has anybody else...

Hi Guys,I been having this displayed on my dash for a few days now and have been through various threads on here and I know it needs topping up. Just a few questions if you guys can help out to understand and clarify 1 - I serviced it last July and the mileage was 89K and now the mileage...

Hi there, I have had my E reg, c180i now for about two months and after fixing the idle problem (thanks very much forum members, removed and cleaned throttle body). I now need help with transmission levels. I think its been over filled, when i take out the dip stick there are two levles, one...
