I just got a 1994 C230 and had my buddy Loco wash the engine, lower the suspension, and put some 36" woofers in the trunk. The car is looking *bling bling* but is not running right. I think he got some water in the motor?

My other buddy Eddie says I need to replace the flux-gate capacitor. I took the car to Midas muffler and they said that I have a plugged cat converter. this other uptite mechanic said he would charge me $65 and hour to diagnose the problem!!! Can you believe it! what a rip-off. I mean if it's just water in the engine then all I need is some water remover. Am I supposed to pour the water remover on the engine or add it to the oil? I can't believe this car is so stupid that I can't wash the engine without it braking. And why is it so slow?

Sometimes I wish my dad had given me the BMW and given the Mercedes to my sister.

Too lazy to answer.....

Stop driving and take the bus. Save us all.

Is this a joke?

the above posts are right on target.

I gave my son a Mercedes as well... he is so grateful. and in the tradition of this board, he often has dirty hands and scrapes.

Too lazy to search. Punch in your daddy's cell phone number and complain to him.

I don't think the '94 C230 has a flux-gate capacitor.

Okay, now I'm starting to feel like a dick. What started out as little bit of clowning around with somebody has just gotten, well sad. This poor person just no clue. I mean three threads? Is that really necessary? And come on, having your insurance pick up the tab for washing the motor? This person has probably totally pissed off the dealer. Can you really see anybody who knows the difference between a screwdriver and a chisel suggesting to remove the heads to see what's going on? You know there's bet going on down at that shop with the mechanics.
