It’s actually cheese . Yes M271 engine

It’s actually cheese . Yes M271 engine

Thanks. Which engine numbers either in a C Class or a CLK are the ones to go for??

ps, is the M271 just the C180 or are there other engine sizes to be aware of?

The later M271 engines (156bhp on the C180) as fitted to the W204 as of 2007 were slightly better, the hydraulic tensioner fails which is usually not as catastrophic as the sprockets failing. But no M271 engine is 100% safe, sadly. The M274 that replaced it in 2012-2013 is much better, though still suffering from thermostat failure (expensive part).

And the 280 or the 350??

And the 280 or the 350??

They have some issues with affected engine numbers in the 2007 year ish range . Camshaft or crankshaft problems (I can never remember which ) .
They are £600 tax bracket as well

From that era better off with a M112 or M113 engine. Can’t go wrong!!
