I have a 05 C230 My battery is located under the hood passengers side, back by the fire wall, the battery has a lid on top (breather/Filter, just unsnap the clips located on the back, take the cover off and you will see the battery. Some MB's have a battery also in the trunk, my benz only has one in the front. If you call the dealer and give them the vin # they can tell you if you have one or two. Good luck.

What happened? I have the same problem all after changing battery to a non Mercedes battery, replaced conductor plate and plug, solenoids, now I'm stuck in first gear won't shift at all just redlines.... Code P0715 and P0410 now before changing the plate it was code P0700 and P0410 I don't know what to do??? I took the shifter loose and tried shifting and it acted like it did before then I bolted back down and it went into gear super hard but won't shift out of 1st gear I'm at a loss

Hi I have a MB 220cdi, 2006,left hand drive, I jumped started another car with jump leads, and seem to have stuffed my radio antenae, I can get stations when parked, but as soon as I drive a couple of hundred metres, I lose the signal, where is the antenae fitted? is it in the glass at the rear? is there an attenuator, replaceable? Help please.

Had my 2002 c270 cdi - with 300k kms - top gasket replaced due to overheating with faulty thermostat and repaced one damaged injector and glo plug...car starts good when cold but struggles when hot...any thoughts
Regards dudleyg

Icucme4

I don't have your car but it sounds like a vac leak possible secondary air check your vac lines, pump, secondary air etc

ddlgvn4

Thanks for the reply will most definitely ensure that my mechanic includes your suggestions ...I forgot to say that since the repair of the top gasket I do have extensive black exhaust smoking on revving or acceleration on the open road with heavy fuel usage...regrds dudleyg

Icucme4

Now with that info sounds like a blown gasket maybe a different one or they didn't properly put the one back on - in sense causing a different vac leak - I would have them pressure test their work - can you see any leaks where they "fixed" it?

ddlgvn4

Oh sorry...was a blown gasket..replaced after having cyl head machined and pressure test done..bad starting when cold and the smoking is the prob at present.

If you are going to disconnect the battery, use a memory minder, then you don't have to reset anything.

1 PLS GUYS I HAVE A 2000 C200K W203

ZAKON

Hello! That's absolutely normal with the w203 (for sure other models too), don't worry. It happens every time the battery is removed for some time.

First, you have to place the key on position 2, then you just have to hold the button for some seconds (the button that opens/closes the sunroof), pressed either forward or down. By holding it you will hear a tiny "click" sound or something similar. After that click sound your sunroof should be fine again.

huotalicusC200K

Hi friend do u know exact procedure dear Friend cuz I have tried holding the button in all directions but still no luck. Any specific position? Like one or two with key. N also which position to press button I have two positions in every direction for me 00' w203 c200 k .. and thanks for ur response it was very whim. I'm in love with my car

Hello, I'm new to this forum.
I disconnected the battery in my MB C230 Coupe to perform a door lock repair. Upon reconnecting the battery, I received a "Battery/Alternator" notification. The battery is 1.5 years old and the alternator is one year old. This problem shows up as a malfunction, but clears itself then reappears and so on. Any suggestions?

I have been reading the current posting on changing over to a new battery and the problems that it can cause.
I have a vehicle ( a 2002 w203 station wagon with approx 120k+) that sits for long periods in the garage.
I have recently had to jump start with another battery (on its own and not in another vehicle,so far it has not caused any problems.
I was interested in attaching a solar panel trickle charger either a 1.5 watt (0.125amps) or 4watt (0.34amps) to try an keep the battery reasonably charged .This was mentioned on another site but I have not been able to find out if you can connect the charger to the Isolated Battery terminals and leave the battery connected to the electrical system or whether one has to disconnect the battery before connecting the charger, which would defeat the purpose of keeping the system on line.
Has any one had any experience with doing this and if so what is the proceedure and Pros & Cons of doing so

My B&D trickle charger does 1.5A and takes about 30 hours to fully charge the battery (14.2V) from 3/4 drained. It automatically goes from charge to standby status and back depending on battery health. Assuming the panel you pick has logic to do the same I would go with the more powerful one. I wouldn't use a panel with no logic as it could literally explode the battery.


Yes, use the isolated terminals, this is how most trickle chargers for cars work....if not all of them.

TYUS

Hmmm, I kno in most car systems, the battery functions minimally when the engine is running so this does sound plausible.
