Looking to buy a C230, looking for advice
Looking for a replacement for my 240D, and have been smitten by the C 230's. Looking for input from those in the know. I'm focusing the search on a 99 or 2000 because of the manual climate control, and the Kompressor interests me. I do my own maintenance, have an awesome tool collection, and have found more info here to maintain the diesel that I could ever imagine. My questions:
1) is the Kompressor that big of deal? More power, but would a 98 NA be underpowered? (remember my DD is a 240D). 2) Any usual rust spots to look for? 3) Is the computerized climate control that big of problem? I've searched for Kompressor, C230 and W202 and know the "lifetime" transmission fluid issues, but what else should I look out for? Thanks, Chuck!
