Supercharger Oil Change

Model: Mercedes Classe C - Years 1983-1993
Part: Engine oil

To change the oil in the supercharger (known as a kompressor, which allows for supercharging Mercedes engines without using a turbine), first remove the air box. Disconnect the hoses attached to the air box and pull it upward to detach it. You can now access the compressor cap; unscrew it and insert a tube connected to a vacuum pump to extract the old oil. After recovering the old oil, introduce the new oil using the tube and replace the cap.
