M271 supercharger service ?

yes ive had a read, but doesn't go into any detail on the charger service ?
 
There was some stuff on YouTube if my memory serves me .
There are a couple of pipes to remove at the front which gives you access to the tiny fill screw , wedge a cloth in the gaps below it I don’t think you can buy them separately.
A mechanics mirror might be handy to help you see it .
You drain it buy using a syringe and tube , it is hard to find the sweet spot for drawing the oil out , but when you do leave the tube where it is and pull the syringe off to get rid of the old oil .
Refill with fresh jet oil until it runs out then replace the screw thingy again , I think there is a tiny o ring on it .
I did mine at 50&85 k miles .
A lot of the mini forums recommended doing it , I think MB use the same Eaton supercharger .

cheers bud, just another job to do :rolleyes:
 
This is the link for the W203 C200 Kompressor with M271 engine and supercharger.

Probably the same as above.
Another job to be done when the weather improves.
This car will certainly keep you busy !!

When I bought the C200 Kompressor SE Auto (September 2021), I had the thermostat to change - along with a long list of other jobs.
The car had been poorly-maintained.
I recently remarked on another thread that this has been the most troublesome car that I have ever owned.
Great when it's running well, but ....... Troublesome !
In the past 3 weeks, I've had to change the screen-washer pump and to bridge a burned-out section of the fuse bank to repair a failure of the heater blower motor.
All in freezing-cold weather with no cover.
