C230 Sport
New owner of a used MB

Greetings everyone,

I am NovaReality, I have a 2006 C230 Sport (W203) one of which I have many questions about, this is my first MB and I also like to do most of my own basic maintenance e.g. changing lights,(Halogen,xenon, LED, incandescent). I learned basic Maintenance on my Previously owned 2003 SAAB 9-3 2.0t and although i refuse to touch the engine, and change the oil myself, everything else was fair game. I would like to learn everything I can about Maintaining, fixing, and upgrading. because there's no greater feeling than working on your own car, but to do it with MB approved Techniques, and to have that knowledge under the belt is always a good idea. also, I am a student in NY i reside in NC.

Dude nice car, looks a lot like my 2004 C240.

I am pretty new as far as working on cars...I change the oil on mine.
Easiest oil change ever.

I have learned a ton here.
