Hi all,
Apologies in advance as i’m new to the site and this stuff in general.
I wanted to ask you all if I should be buying at C230 2006 model and if it will give me any problems or not? I’ve found one I like however me being me, I did a quick search on Google for problems with this model and came across loads of things that point to a balance shaft problem which is very costly to fix.
The problem itself is relatively old so I wanted to know what the chances are that it’s taken care of or how I can find out if it still an issue or if a previous owner had it fixed?
I asked the dealer but he was not able to help, all he did tell me is that there are no outstanding recalls on this model?
I have checked against the VIN and it does fall within the category of engines affected.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
