How to change the Supercharger in the Mercedes Slk230

[@jonny5ive167]

Awesome! I'm glad i watched this before trying to pull one from a junkyard. Great channel!

The issue turned out to be the O2 sensor, not the supercharger.

[@rudigerballnath5413]

Aber dadurch ist herausgekommen, das zu viel Öl im Kompressor war. Das hätte wahrscheinlich irgendwann zu Problemen geführt.

How often should you change the oil in the compressor? can you get little dip stick to check how much should there be is in there? whats the best oil to use then?

Greetings from Bulgaria, I have a Mercedes W208 CLK with 2.3 kompressor, I'm wondering what problem did you had with the old one that you decided to change with new?

[@Engineerboy100]

We could not pass emissions and were told it was the supercharger, it turned out to be the O2 sensors.....

[@mricemantoyou]

Notice that at 28:40 the sensor wire is touching the auxiliary belt... Hope you tied it up before driving 😬

[@Engineerboy100]

Yeah, I got it, Thanks though, you never know about those things, sometimes you don't see what the viewer sees and they can save you a lot of head aches.

Do you have any tips on finding these for cheap? I am trying to find one that isn't $500+ online. Very informative video by the way, thank you!

[@Engineerboy100]

I don't think so, I bought 3 many years ago in anticipation of them being a fail point. They are much more expensive now than when I bought mine. I rebuild them and swap them out as she needs them.

Hi Mate! Thanks for your video. Can you supercharge a mercedes skl 200 that originally comes without the supercharger?

[@Engineerboy100]

Yep, but you gotta know what you're doing.

[@rudigerballnath5413]

Geht alles. Aber man muss auch einen Ladeluftkühler einbauen. Alles muss angepasst werden. Eventuell muss auch die Software im Steuergerät verändert werden. Außerdem hat der Wagen ohne Kompressor keine Antischlupf Regulierung! Das müsste auch nachgerüstet werden.

Hey, I’m 18 years old. You’re by far the most informative channel I could find on SLK230 repairs. Thank you for your videos. I have to repair my dads 1999 SLK230. Is there any possible way I could contact you reliably for questions I might have regarding this car? I really need help. Thank you so much if not anyways.
