MERCEDES BENZ 2001-2001 C200 KOMPRESSOR NZ AND

FACTS AND FIXING

The Mercedes-Benz made a C200 Kompressor coupe in 2001, labelled the C-Class SportCoupé. The C200 is the touring compact car thats not going to kill you on the costs for some parts etc due to ebay as parts can be cheap if you don't mind waiting for 2 weeks. You can get a manual online for these models or on trademe in NZ or on ebay. The M111.940 is a 2.0 L (1998 cc) 16-valve engine with bore and stroke of 89.9 x 78.7 mm and compression ratio of 9.6:1. It produces 100 kW (136 hp) of power and 190 Nm of torque. the 93-2000 year was a W202. then came the W203.

The  engine uses a mechanical injection the Siemens PEC/PMS (Pressure Engine Control) management system, which integrates fuel and spark management. Its a strong motor for a strong gearbox and the auto is 5 speed. It uses 2 ignition coils and no ignition distributor. Cylinders are fired in pairs (dual fire) - 1 and 4 together, and 2 and 3 together. The crankshaft position sensor is sensing the movement of two radially opposed position plates on the flywheel, one of which is magnetized, and the other is not. Similar to the M111.940 engine, the 942 version also came out. It produces 100 kW (134 hp, 136PS) of power and 190 Nm (140 lb·ft) of torque.

• 192 hp. Maximum speed.
• 230 km/h. Acceleration 0 - 100 km/h.
• 8 sec. Fuel tank volume

The four cylinder C200 Kompressor,has a very fast engineand can do max 138kmh, The car's performance and amazing economy is an asset.

The Kompressor version as above is supercharged.The C-Class is Benz's best selling model and is available with a range of engines, starting with two 1.8-litre supercharged fours but I have seen where a C180 did 450,000 miles on the clock still with the same clutch. Servicing and a new cam belt all was needed so not bad for a MB Mercedes Benz C Class. The fact a MB is cheap in NZ is because of the parts and intricate workings of the sensors and motors. However they are super strong in the boday with very heavy doors, bonnet and boot so one feels safe in these cars.

KEY STUCK AND WON'T COME OUT:

TAKE FOOT OFF BRAKE = can't remove key otherwise. Think the key was stuck but forgot the foot brake [foot] must be off.

1/. If you find that the key still doesnt come out sometimes with despite not touching the brake, ensure that you have the shift in Park, make sure its pushed all the way to the top as there is a switch under the console that needs to be engaged for the key to be removed. A few mm short from the top can cause the switch to not engage properly.

 2/. IF your key is missing part of its cover then just buy another one of ebay. They are cheap just swap the inner circuit board as one of my remote buttons had a crack. Its a cheap way of getting a new 'Shell' for your key !

WINDSCREEN WASHER:
These are 2 stage so push harder. Push past the resistance and water will be forthcoming. The little push is for a flick wipe

WATER COOLANT
Check and add when cold. 50/50 mix water & antifreeze

WHAT DOES W & S MEAN BY THE GEARSTICK:

When W is selected the trans engages 2nd gear by passing 1st. This aids traction in snow & ice. Affects reverse also. Used by people who don’t like to shift shock felt from 1st to 2nd

CANNOT GET GEAR STICK OUT OF PARK MODE:

You need to push your car onto a truck or trailer as won't start & you cannot move it. Easy fix. Take the housing off the gearstick & on the back or side you will see a plastic toggle to slide either up or down. That will then release the gear stick to the neutral position.

The C200 comes in a coupe or roadster version or a saloon. Fuel consumption is 7.90 L / 100 km
