Not as easily or cheaply as the later cars. W210 is its own animal. The electronics in it bare no resemblance to the cars that came before or after and it also received a lot of changes from year to year. The W163, W220 and up are all standardized. One cheap off the shelf tool that fits in your glovebox does everything through the OBD2 port.

Correct me if I'm wrong but last time I checked the W220 hit the market after after the W210.
