E280CDI SPORTS ESTATE and C200 KOMPRESSOR SE Coupe Auto (1.8 lit petrol)
As part of my ongoing refurbishment of the above car, I intend to renew the power steering hydraulic oil.
But - Which oil ?
I have two containers of MB P/S oil ...
- - - The oil that I bought from MB for the two W210s that I had - MB Pt # A 000 989 88 03
- - - The oil that I bought from MB for the year 2009 W211 E280 CDI Sports Estate. Unfortunately, the label has dropped off the container and the Pt # is lost.
Are either of these correct ... or ... Do I need another type ?
Advice welcome.
Thanks.
 
On this vintage it is normally The green one from MB. What year is the car ?

P.S you only need just over a litre and the filter is built into the header tank and can not be replaced. . New tank (inc filter obviously) and fluid kits are available online.
 
Thanks Pete.
The C200 Kompressor is year 2005.

The W210s that I had were years 1997 (the E300TD) and 2002 (the E430 facelift).
 
I have checked the two containers ...
The oil for the W210s is colourless.
The oil for the year 2009 W211 E280 is a very pale green colour.
 
I use the yellow / green A001 989 24 03 10, or Febi 08972

Thanks m80.
I've checked back thru my business invoices from just after I bought the W211 E280 in 2015.
Sure enough - I bought the light green coloured oil for it with Pt #: A001 989 24 03 10.
That's the one with the lost label.
Result !!
