Default Simple and easy questions?
Hi, I just bought a 99 C230 Sport K with 135K miles on it.
I am trying to check up all oils, coolant, etc. Seems like there are specific products that I NEED to use for Mercedes? Can I use any coolant, any brake oil, any steering oil, any engine oilthat I can buy from a local auto part shop? or do I need to use products specifically designed for Mercedes?

Owner's manual didn't come with the car, so I have no idea about this. Please help!!!

any good quality fluids can be fine, but on steering and transmission oil, better use the specified number.
