Umm, that's the M272. The i4 M271 is a rectangular engine without a cover AFAIK.

Or it may be the M112, no idea.

Oh sorry I was using a torch light phone to respond. It didn't show much details on the car. Now I am using my android I can see it better. That's a C230 sports 2.5l V6 M272 engine.
Avoid the car.

WD u call what I attached here the c230 sports v6 to be avoided?

When u say 7speed, u mean from gear1 to gear7 on auto?

such maginal picture can't tell if its the v6 or kompressor. If you're buying it, ensure the issues were corrected prior to its importation to Nigeria. Its got 7gears auto

I'll get the 06 or 07 c230 if I were you
It's the fastest, most powerful and sportier than the crappy c240 and 320
Better still get the c280 which is faster than all the w203s except the AMG variants and the c350
The economy of the c230 is superb, it looks very nice with a sport steering wheel, a 722.9 7 speed steptronic automatic transmission which will require optimum maintenance
There is no 4matic for the c230
The c230 kompressor has a 1.8l supercharged i4 which loses power on the long run
So if you're after just economy, get a c200, trust me
The c230's economy is superb

this is un-true. The guys abroad used it for years no issue it came to Nigeria and starts losing power why? maintenance wrong oil spec, leaks from intake or supercharger hose or a limp mode from transmission or engine or abs issue.

But why not the '06 model??
I heard its better than earlier versions of W203.
I even heard the electrical systems improved with the 06.

When u say c230 is economical, would you include the v6 of them being economical?

its best to avoid c230 sports v6 the m273 had a myrad of issue when it first came out. the electricals are good but the 7speed transmission had vgs issue, the engine had balance shaft issue and intake manifold runner issues which could damage the engines or transmission. the replacement parts are expensive.

depends on year you are looking at but

230 is 2.3L 4cylinder
240 is 2.4L 4cylinder
320 is 3.2L 6cylinder

not always so though until you tell us what year you are looking at

4matic in benz term is 4wheel drive
Compressor in benz term is turbo charged

to for example a C230 can be 4matic and compressor at the same time

you're wrong bro. c230 is actually 2.5l v6 M273 facelift model starting from 06-last production of w203.

c230 kompressor is actually 1.8l 4 cylinder with supercharger M271, they're both pre-facelift and facelift models ending in 2005 in w203.

c240 is a 2.6l v6 M112. for this model of benz, they started in 01-05 in w203.

No kompressor comes with a 4matic in normal non performance units.

If he's in for performance, economy and looks, c230 sports or c230 kompressor will give him, if he's in for reliability and practicality, c240 and c230 kompressor will fetch him that.

Chiefo please which of the Toyota hilux do they consider to be Shell Specifications?

Kindly advise

i hear some folks talking about shell specs, however, toyota never mentioned any hilux as shell specs. but i think its those units with bigger tyres body wheel arch claddings that 4X4 wheel drive systems and also have tonneau cover at the cargo bed that folks refer to as shell specs.

that sound so pained. nevertheless i understand your pain.

anyways you can go kill yourself as S L O W L Y as you desire - i don't have any F U C K S to give.

on the contrary, I'm not pained, you are clearly pained if not, you'd not be weeping over your fraudulent mechanic's stunts. I won't advocate you kill yourself, rather find solace in anything that brings relief to you. and hey, no need to be rude to me cos I am not responsible for your predicament.

cheers!

oga kingreign
i will rather say u should speak for yourself sir.
i still stand on my words Sir. too many experience from our mechanics that it will be very hard for me to agree with you.
and if you dare try to accompany him to go buy it, you will be on a merry-go-round to apo, zuba and kugbo without still getting the parts but a promise from the parts dealer for your mechanic to come tomorrow the parts will arrive from Lagos on special order!
at least you still confirm my main claim - Abuja mechanics doesn't like it when car owners stay to watch them service their cars.
oga leave matter for matharooo!
if you know, you know!

Its not my business for you to agree with me or any mechanic.
If you don't understand me, read my post S L O W L Y again. Why police and supervise me on a job, if you could do it, why bring it to me? if you don't trust me with your property go find someone trust worthy.

nwaanambra1:
yes.

besides those things u claimed that ur mechanic changed i can bet u he may not have changed them - he may have just cut tire and put in-between those arms. or were you there when he changed them? No.

abuja mechanics don't like it whn the owner is there while they service your car - they prefer you to "go and come back later and carry your car" so they can have the freedom to do the stealing and swapping they want to do.

I disagree. I'm based in Abuja I fix cars and I am comfortable working while not being supervised by any car owner, Yet, I DONT STEAL OR SWAP PARTS. I speak for myself, and I believe a good number of kazeems too don't engage in such illegalities.

please stop generalizing if you've been defrauded make it personal to the person who defrauded you, like "Kazeem named Usman Oladeji Chibuike who's workshop is along Kurudu..."

thanks!

Wheel Speed Sensors?
Brake/Traction Actuators?
Brake Actuator Assembly?
Brake Light Switch Assembly?

Possibilities...you need scan data, maybe freeze frame data, detailed manufacturer technical troubleshooting guidelines, patience and some familiarity with electrical electronics and you should be good

As much as I would love to help...this is in-depth troubleshooting and goes beyond what can be done pro bono...I suggest you take up the offer by Kingreig.n who will most likely not do it for free, but then he is close to you, if that gives you some comfort that you are dealing with someone that is within reach
