1996 Mercedes-Benz C230 Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 1996 Mercedes-Benz C230 addresses the Kompressor, the only trim listed for this year. Its 2.3L inline-four uses double overhead camshafts and a supercharger and runs on gasoline, and it sits in a four-door sedan body. That makes the 1996 C230 a tightly defined car to service, with one forced-induction engine, one body and one trim.
