    How to change ignition coils in 1997 Mercedes c280 w202 Ellegance?

    Hi all,

    It has been a while since my last visit to this great site, but I really need your knowledge on this occasion.

    I have bought 3 new ignition coils specific to my 1997 Mercedes C280 w202 Ellegance sedan's requirements and am looking for someone who can walk me through the change process?

    Would really appreciate it, I have been told it is a small job and is easy, I am not a mechanic and don't really want to pay $150 per hour and screwed over with a mechanic if you know what I mean.

    Thanks very very much for your help in advance!

    Great to be back on here!

    Tyler :-)

    If I remember correctly, just unplug the wire and unscrew the coil box.

    Should be pretty straight forward like Denlasoul said. I changed the spark plugs back in July in my C230 it was one of the easiest cars to change spark plugs in. I'm assuming the M104 has it's coil packs on the valve cover with the plugs like the M111 does.
    Completely mad.
    '99 C230K, intake and exhaust more on the way.
    '86 MKIV Escort RS Turbo, stock for now, chip and more boost on the way
    '75 Fiat 124 Spider, koni shocks, bigger carb and drilled/slotted brakes
    to tune and hoon the mbz master race.
