MERCEDES BENZ 2001-2001 C200 KOMPRESSOR BRAKES AND CHANGING LOWER SUSPENSION BALL JOINTS.

 

 

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.

 

 

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

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.

When you take the old hoses off use 2 spanners. One on top to hold as could be rusted solid then the other under the plate to release the hose. You may have to cut the hose to unwind but its useless anycase if youre changing the hoses. The picture above both hoses need replacing as rusted.

Rear Brake flexible hose are 308mm long and wear after approx 120,000kms so need to replace. Best idea buy off ebay as agents in NZ want an arm & a leg.

FRONT BRAKE HOSE.


CONTROL ARM LOWER FRONT LEFT suspension

BALL JOINT Part No:  JTC968 = $175.65 REPCO NZ SO BEST BUY ON EBAY FROM UK

 

always specify which side of the front ball joint you require. You cannot buy just the ball joint. You must buy the whole arm with ball joint attached and easy to buy off ebay TO NZ with 2 weeks delivery. Agents overcharge & get them in via courier so take your time. Best idea when you need a new WOF do it 10 days before expiry so you have time to order parts THAT YOU NEED.

REAR BRAKE DISCS:

Buy from supercheap. They may take one day to get for you but cheaper tha n BNT by $20. Cost is around $46. Make sure you take your old discs in so they can make to their book. SUPERCHEAP ARE GETTING BETTER AND BETTER SUPPLYING PARTS as at Dec 2018.

 

 

The rear discs are approx 6cm square. Some disc pads have 2 pin holes but the 2001 model W202 has one pin hole. No need to buy in Australia as cheaper in NZ but not from the MB dealers. Supercheap are the best and will get in in one day

 

 

 

Slide pin to the right using a punch & hammer lightly then open the disks May have to lever them to pump out. Use one of the old brake pads to push the caliper pistons back into the frame. Slowly compress each piston one on each side.Can replace bad with good discs within 5 minutes.Note the tin plates on the outside of each disc brake pad which clip over the top of the disc

 

 

 

Rear brake and hoses. Very easy to get at once you jack the car and take the rear wheel off using 17mm socket on the wheel nuts.

1. MB OEM Brake Pads - Part number: A 003 420 27 20

The C200 comes in a coupe or roadster version or a saloon.

SIDE MIRRORS WONT OPEN:

This can happen over time when you push the small button above the mirror control on the dash right side. The top left button brings the mirrors in & the one top right pushes the mirrors out. Sometimes it doesnt work. The bottom 2 knobs are for adjusting the mirror itself. Check the 2 fuses on the right side of the console between the doors & mirror knobs. You should have a fuse chart there as well. The C200 has 3 fuse compartments. One on the right side of the dash with fuse 20 & 21 green colour for the mirrors. Theres also another fuse under the bonnet top left under the cover. Another fuse box is in the boot on the left side facing forward but not for the mirrors. If the fuses are Ok then the motor drive in the mirrors may be jammed. Best idea have someone press the right top knob for the mirror to open & gently pry open slowly the mirror. Do the same on the passenger side.
