I have a 1999 C 230 Kompressor with 71K. When my check engine light came on, my NEW and highly recommended mechanic's diagnostic computer found a bad ignition coil on #2 cylinder, and the car needing a tune up. He replaced the coil, did the tune up and replaced the stop light switch. The check engine light remained on. He discovered the compressor clutch was working erratically. Because the tab was at $700, I asked if the compressor clutch was critical. He said it wasn?t. Does all this sound okay? This shop has an excellent reputation but I have to wonder about the computer not being specific in the diagnosis process. Any input greatly appreciated.
