So is there a reason why I can't ask where the superchargeR is? Or is it just some people that wants to tag team on me?

Boody hell, its on the engine.... look at your pullies.. you probably have a AIR CONDITIONER pump, WATER PUMP, HARMONIC BALANCER, POWERSTEERING, SMOG PUMP, and the **** KOMPRESSOR ****.

hint the kompressor (or SUPERCHARGER) is connected to the AIR BOX. process of elimination.

Easy there....

I was just trying to help you out. Yes the forum is a great place to discuss and learn, etc. BUT through the learning process of reading, and pictures, one may just need to some studying as well.

I can honestly say... I have not opened the hood of the c230.. but if i was, i feel pretty confident that i could find it with out having to ask too many questions...

OPEN YOUR HOOD UP, take a look.

Supercharger

Dude, open the hood of your car, and look to the back left portion of the engine -- you will see an opening. From the top of the engine follow the 3 exhaust manifolds (look like 3 tubes that meld into one tube) down to the larger copper colored tube -- that is the turbo assembly.

I agree, sometime these forums can be more of a pain in the **** than they are helpful, but I guess you just have to earn your stripes... Best of luck with your car.

You people are starting to worry me.. The cut-out only shows one full cylinder but you can see the walls of the other two on each side..(forth is pretty well hidden to show the detail on the rest of the engine)...

Maybe it's because when you open the hood all you see in modern cars (especially European) is the plastic cover and everything is controlled by electronics. No dip stick to check, no contact breakers to adjust the timing, no carburators to mess with. It's really kind of a shame that people are starting to treat their cars like commodities without any understanding of how they work.
How many people work on their own cars anymore? I took my first motorcycles (BSA Bantam and Triumph 5TA) and car (1964 mini) to pieces all the time. It was the only way I could keep the running. :drive:
It's a very sad trend and doesn't just apply to cars.
