Exclamation Need Help - C180 K W203 2004 Model

Hey guys,

new member here would just like to introduce myself and my ride from Melbourne, Australia!

I have had a friend hook up his OBDII and this is what I need:

C180 kompressor W203 2004 Model

- Camshaft/Crankshaft sensor for cylinder misfire in all 4 cylinders
- c02 sensors 1 & 2

Also want to get my own OBDII tool, what do you guys recommend?

I have found a few parts online, would love some advice on whether these are the correct parts for my MB;

- OBDII ===

- c02 sensor ===

Camshaft sensor ===

- Crankshaft ===

I have gone through as much of this forum as I can and I am confident in changing these parts myself, I have attached a few pics so you guys can see what I am working on

This is the scan tool I use http://www.equus.com/Product/3130c/S...with-FixAssist

When it comes to replacing sensors, I stick with OEM as I don't need the hassle of doing the repair and having an issue with it afterwards. Universals and third party may work but I don't want the risk. It is sometimes not wise to pay too little because in the long run it might actually cost you more

biggest problem I see with your car is the steering wheel is on the wrong side, factory error?

Thanks for the advice, but that scan tool is a bit too pricey for me = (

from previous experience with other vehicles the task at hand is fairly easy for me, just finding the correct parts is my issue = )

Well here down under we might as well be reversed, were upside down from everyone else anyway = )

I paid about $120 from Amazon for that scan tool
