MERCEDES BENZ 2001-2001 C200 KOMPRESSOR AND

FACTS AND FIXINGS

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.

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.

The reset button is on the left above the wiper/indicator lever on the dash.

NOISE BEHIND THE RADIO MORE LIKELY THE

STEPPER MOTOR OR LINKAGE:

You start the car, I hear the clicking noise for about 20 seconds and then it goes away. I don't get heat or ac to the feet. most likely the foot well stepper motor linkage. I got the little plastic parts.

The ticking noise is pretty common in the C200 W203 cars.. its from a broken stepper motor linkage between the stepper motor and the left footwell flap. There is a short white/CREAM OR BLACK linkage in there that breaks since it was poorly designed to begin with. Takes about 1 HOUR to get to them Also, the loud hissing noise is from the A/c expansion valve. Basically it means your a/c system is low on refrigerant since you have a leak somewhere. It could be leaking somewhere around the Drier or around the A/c compressor itself.

The part number for the linkage kit is #A203-830-00-33

The C200 broken linkage causes the clicking noise behaind the radio in the dash.

These are are on ebay to buy.
