new repair manual on DVD

Hi every body,

I just received the so called repair DVD for my W203 (link
http://www.mercedestechstore.com/203.htm)

I was expecting to find the usual info as for the previous W124 repair manual on CD.

There is an autorun that launches the DVD. Am I doing something wrong when installing the DVD? Because I just dont find any drawing/ procedure for repairs, electrical drawings, etc.

Did anybody try theses new DVD's?

that isn't a repair manual, that is basically a technical introduction to the model. that cd is most useful to learn about the cars different systems.

Thank you Carson357

I have misread the following post
http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=171767
Should I have instead ordered Part number P-2700-203-06
for the W203 chassis?

Do you know if the official repair manual is available?

thank you mslc791,

I think I have wasted 100$.

Did you order it by calling at 1-800-FOR-MERCEDES (1-800-367-6372) ?

Could you tell me also whether the other dvd (part N° P-2700-203-06) covers also the diesel engines, my car is C220 CDI, coupe sport.

And which types of engines, should be like OMxxx

Thanks in advance

I think it only covers US models of W203, which are all gas engines. I got the DVD directly from MBUSA. Can you get the similar DVD in Europe?

yes mslc791
I know the manuals cover US models but at least except small modif the rest is all the same (brakes, suspension, steering.....) and I can cope with differences. But here in Europe it is hardly possible to buy those manuals. I bought some years ago the one fot W124 and is perfect for my needs. That is why I would like to know if the NEw DVD cover diesel engines.

So I would be very greatfull to anybody who can give a glance to the content of the DVD if covers deisel engines before I waste money.
