Need suggestions for DIY sites and manuals...

I did an inspection on my car yesterday, had the chance to put it on the lift (Maxjax) and there are many questions that came to my mind. Would like to know more about my C350 mechanically. Do you have any suggestions for DIY sites, MBworld and Benzworld are the only two places I went too. I also purchase a repair manual on Ebay (did not get it yet) and downloaded one from Tradebit but no success so far with the installation....Thanks a lot for your help! J.P.

Agree 100%. It is amazing the answers for problems encounter I have found on 6speed and Renntech for my Porsche. But seems to be a bit more difficult for the Mercedes. Common answer found is "you best bet is to go to the dealer" . Anxious to get the repair manuals and see what kind of information I can get from them....
