1995: The renaissance of supercharger technology in Mercedes-Benz cars started with the 2.3-liter four-cylinder engines in the C-Class, SLK and CLK. At the International Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) in 1995 the company introduced the C 230 Kompressor, in which mechanical supercharging made peak torque of 280 Newton meters available from 2500 to 4800/min. However, the 142 kW (193 hp) four-valve four-cylinder engine required only 8.2 liters of premium per 100 kilometers (NEDC combined, 28.7 mpg). That made the engine about 20 percent more economical than a naturally-aspirated engine of the same output. In the C 230 Kompressor, each revolution of the mechanical blower’s rotors forced more than a liter of air into the engine. The C-Class managed the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.4 seconds, accelerated from 60 km/h to 120 km/h in 11.8 seconds, and had a top speed of 230 km/h. With this car Mercedes-Benz revived a tradition begun in the days of Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft. In 1918 DMG first used supercharger technology successfully in aero engines developed by Paul Daimler, and in 1922 the first supercharged Daimler car competed in the Targa Florio in Sicily.

Just a great job, simple and effective.'.

[@CountryShenanigans]

Thank you! Glad you found it helpful! I'm a big fan of the older model Mercedes, and I have found that they are actually very easy to work on.

[@Randy-qq8lr]

I believe the torque is 10Nm if i’m not mistaken. Thank you for making this 😎

[@CountryShenanigans]

You are correct. Thanks for your comment!

[@colinsmith4699]

A good video

[@alsoncheong7773]

Do you drain some coolant out before changing it?

[@scentotd]

Would be my question as well

[@keithwallis9541]

Could you show me how to locate the coolant temperature sensor

[@antoniogsjordao]

Nice video but I am stuck in a very early stage: how to remove the gray plastic front engine cover. I don't see any screws and I don't want to use tools for levering because I am afraid it is gonna break. Some advice?

[@sexxx54]

Lift from the tab in the front

Hello, I suffer from a lack of water in the car, and there is no leaking hoses or radiators, does the thermostat do that in case it is damaged, as I notice a sudden drop in the temperature of the car and it did not rise from its normal position to 80C
when Stuck Open Thermostat is to cause to lack of water , the weather is summer ??

[@jetstream454]

That sounds like a stuck open thermostat

1998 C230 W202 doesn't have that lip for the gasket.

[@sexxx54]

Pretty sure this is for the Kompressor model

[@DavidMaldonadoSpanishGuitar]

@@sexxx54 Oh, I see. Thanks for the reply!

[@CountryShenanigans]

Yes, it is the Kompressor model
