No need to lie to validate something. If in doubt, go try out pacing a 2005 Camry V6. I won’t bring in the SE variant or even the 2007-date Camry models to this discuss.

My c200 kompressor ,is a 4cylinder engine a Nd am comparing with a 4 cylinder engine 05 Camry ( sorry I didn't mention)

Be calming down.

It's not always about HP. How th power is put down also matters.

A 2008 Honda city will beat the Merc in a 0 to 100 km/hr sprint.

Make una take am easy. We know say una like Benz pass una wives but some claims are downright silly.

Your shaft na your problem.

It's not a Camry or Corolla problem. It is a maintenance item. It is meant to be replaced when it gets worn. It wasn't designed to last forever. A genuine replacement should last donkey years and possibly get scrapped with the car.

Make una dey lie small small.

Me no wan argue again cos it’s needless. Let everybody drive whatsoever they feel like or can afford. Las las it’s live and let’s live.

Guys, I just had a minor issue with my car. My car won't start with the starter relay pushed into the front Sam, however, if I bypass this relay by connecting two wires, the car starts but the security system is messed up and thus I won't be able to drive out unless I unplug the battery head, but the alarm won't work and the security beep keeps beeping untill my battery is drained. What could be the problem?

70k miles is really a lot for a luxury car.
Clean history or not,there's something called wear and tear.Its worse in luxury cars as there are a lot of things to fail or wear in them.
And btw,a W204 probably 2010 is an old car chief,12-14 years is a long time man.
Well,you'll soon realise this as you grow .

w204 2013, and not 10. 70k miles, is a fair drive for a car that is over 8 years. Like I said, if you have nothing to say just shut up and stop insulting yourself

Well,I don't know of anyone driving a W205 that's having all these aging problems as you,that should tell you something.
W204,W204 facelift, same cars with the latter just having a few cosmetic difference and in some cases a different engine(M273),same old drivetrain and electricals produced almost same time that have existed long enough to start wearing and tearing.
All boils down to age brotherly.Not insulting or talking down your car but luxury cars do this a lot.
The moneypit syndrome as they age us beginning to show its ugly head,now us the time to dump that car and protect your savings.

Don’t you actually get tired of all these baseless highly questionable things you spew online?

It may interest you to know I’ve had to rebuild or replace more than 17 W205 and W213 engines.

Please be guided, some very old luxury cars still perform excellently well abs would outlast a lot of newer cars.

An engine is a mechanical unit that fails most times due to inputs(service history,drive pattern,foreign bodies that found its way into them) and its failure have little to do with aging.
So that's a wrong analogy to even make to justify your point in this case.
How many times you don hear W205 SAM just seize on its own or some similar problems with no known cause?They're still relatively new so things like that will hardly happen,give it time and it'll start all these aging problems like this guy's W204!
I know you'll try to defend obvious truths,after all you make a living off people's automobile ignorance .
More random failures will still happen and I hope his pockets are deep enough to cater for sudden ,reoccurring costly expenses on old ,valueless German cars.

A car power train (engine and transmission) is warrantied to last at least 100,000 miles from manufacturer; But when you have issues with harsh shifting or stalling transmissions piston cracking, breaking, sparkplugs being crushed, turbines breaking and spilling oils, engine short block being busted and ruptured open, crankshaft bearings and others damaged, oil pumps failing and water pumps failing on these supposedly newer cars. And convenience features such as window roller switches, seat adjustment buttons etc getting stuck and working intermittently as if they’ve got a mind of their own in as early as 23,000 miles (from genuine brand new), you claim these are issues to be overlooked or age?
I laugh at these comment of yours.

I’ve seen and driven quite a number of W203, 204, 220,221, 212, 212 and hardly have I noticed such early failures.

young man you're an Ignorant fellow, it's my security. My alarm won't beep if I hold the panic button, and thus the EPS light doesn't beep. However my technician doesn't seem to be too versatile and I need a more experienced person. He said either he removes security and I'll never use panic button or alarm etc.

I've been conversing,you've being insultive.
I tried to ignore your tantrums but it keeps happening.
You have to work on this behaviour of yours,else you'd be greatly limited from getting to the good things of life as a consequence to your bad attitude,like you being stuck with a 12 year old Mercedes for instance.
Nice day.

it's not insultive, but insulting. You sound like an illiterate. Like I said it's a 2013 model which ofcourse is a w205. So thank you for your stupid input, which makes no single sense.

W205 in 2013?What you own is a w204 facelift.
If it was a 205 you won't be facing aging problems this early.
We no dey English class,I focus on things that will make me afford proper luxury,not old ones.So forgive my poor use of English but I really don't care.
Yes I'm an illiterate,one smart enough to avoid old luxury cars by all means.
