Youtube how to videos for W202!!
So I am sure some of you have seen the youtube videos I found for our W202's so I figured I would post them all here. Not everything on these videos is 100% correct as they are working on a C280 or something but they are close enough that I have been able to do it all with a couple extra steps (extra bolt here or there type of thing).

I stole this one from another forum and think it is a good addition to the existing DIY and How Does. This one is for spark plugs and looks relatively simple albeit time consuming Hijacked also these tips :http://www.202tech.com/howtos.html
There is an excellent one in there regarding 'How To' read codes...
