Mercedes C280 1999 Customer Review
Bought a “bucket” in the month of October 2010. During operation the machine exhausted all the nerves, although the condition of the car is nice, low mileage – 104t.km.
Machine from Japan, the equipment В«EleganceВ», left hand drive (auction estimate 4B), full power, climate control, electric seats, 5-speed. Auto, Lim-control. In general, all the bells and whistles, but the skin.
The main drawback of the car – cold start in the morning, the engine “troit”, after the re-launch “triplets” can cease.
Tried to eliminate this drawback:
changed the candles – 12 pieces – $ 85
petrol filter – $ 28
washing forsunov – $ 32
Air Flow Meter – $ 115
Nothing helped (share advice, if you know what could be the problem).
In addition to this change:
silent blocks stabilizer and cushion automatic transmission – $ 37
motor barrel washer – $ 6
heat exchanger gaskets – $ 38
light in the brush devices (several) – $ 6
dipstick (80% 112th motor drive with the broken probe, broken plastic ring) – $ 30
Very uncomfortable driving position, even though seats electric, steering wheel moves up and down, but with an increase in 187 right foot touches the steering wheel and brake pedal, interior tight fit.
The rest of the car is more or less, if I may say so. V-shaped six, the amount of 2.8, has good acceleration, the color “silver” and alyufelgi, blestyashki on the bumper and door handles, interior “wood” (incidentally, I can not find a wooden pad on the driver’s door, because there is a short elektrosideniya, native plate cracked), produce a good impression outwardly.
Yes, still lacks: a Japanese radio sample (only up to 89FM), non-standard square number.
The car in the city consumes 12-13 liters per hundred, while hodovku did, because I travel a little, to work 20 min. As to the garage.
The main problem – a cold engine start. Give good advice that can be done to the motor does not “Troilus”.
