With this black jumper in place, the starter should turn if its not faulty when I turn the ignition key. Unfortunately nothing happened, though proving that the starter was indeed faulty. So I got out the tools and removed the starter after I checked that the started solenoid voltage was present when the key was turned. Because of limited space between the bell housing and the car body, I needed to joint 2 long extensions together with a swivel adapters for flexibility. Then added a second swivel adapter between the extension and the 15 mm spline socket, all attached to a power bar to remove the two long starter bolts. After removing the starter, and cleaning the grime from it, I struggled to undo the starter solenoid screws and ended up damaging the screw heads. I then resorted to an impact-driver but to no avail because the screw heads were just too damaged.
I painstakingly hammered each screw with a cold chisel and eventually I got them loose. Luckily I had another starter from which I could salvage three screws that were in perfect nick. Mercedes Benz W203 C180k starter completely dismantled. Opening up the starter was quick and easy, only to reveal that two of the brushes were completely worn down to its very last, and two dangling braids that were attached to brush material at some time. The brush module was clogged with grime and to make any sense of what I was dealing with, I had to clean it up. So out of curiosity, I cleaned up the debris to reveal the following. One of the springs were broken and slightly worn away. A piece of one brush survived along with the brush holders, non of which were usable because the new brush panel comes as a complete unit. The fact that the brushes didn't make contact with the armature any longer was the real reason why the starter wouldn't turn-over.
Besides, it miraculously and very surprisingly continued working until its brushes were beyond end of life. As can be seen in the image above, the brush panel still has two bits of braided wire that was once attached to brushes. Using a stick I further removed the rest of the grime out of the field coils and wiped it down with a solvent in order to restore it to its former glory.

I suspected that oil had dripped down onto the starter, seeped inside and mixed with the worn-off brush particles to form a sludge. Considering that the Oil coolers sits directly above the starter, there was no other reason for the thick oil-like substance that's visible on the stick above, to be inside the starter.
