- C class 2007 1.8
Hi, i have joined here and hope to get help with my problem.
My parents brought a c class 200k brand new back in 2007, always been serviced and maintained very well. Now at 86,000 miles and chain has stretched and has jumped about 3 teeth and won't start.
I need to carry out a leak down test to confirm if any valves are bent.
They said I can have the car and i intend on repairing it myself.
I was just wondering if any has used parts from m271.com or is it best to get mercedes parts.
Hopefully I can get this car back and running without breaking the bank as its far to nice to go to the scrap yard.
Thanks.
