    EML lit up

    These error messages have come up, perhaps related to SAM, but don't know where to start looking. Thought I may start by disconnecting and cleaning connections, but don't know where to look. Amy ideas or help?mmm

    OM651 oil leak

    My 2011 E Class 250 with OM651 engine has an oil leak at back of engine. Any known places with these engines that are known to leak? Thinking timing chain cover, any thoughts.

    OM651 Intermittent stall and revs drop on idle

    May be worth getting egr cleaned and injectors tested/cleaned. Both would cause the issues you're getting. Session on Star would probably pinpoint the issue better though

    CLS 250cdi OM651

    I have the same engine and pretty much commute the same distance as you, about 13 miles. On a cold day, it only just reaches what I would call normal temperature, by the time I'm at work. As a previous poster said these engines have a large coolant supply, about 10 litres, so don't worry

    OM651 P2779 fault 2012 C250 cdi

    Do you have manual gearchange, ie, steering wheel paddles? Be worth seeing if the car still changes gear manually, up and down. Keep us informed. All adds to knowledge [emoji106]

    OM651 P2779 fault 2012 C250 cdi

    Are you sure it's not P2279? That indicates an air leak has occurred on the "metered" side of the intake manifold. There is more air entering the intake manifold than the mass airflow or MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor would suggest. If it really is P2779, then that's a transmission...

    Battery Change

    Tayna were brilliant with me. I have a 2011 E250 and they're only just up the road from me in Abergele. I bought the battery from them and there tech fitted it. Because my car has stop/start technology with second battery, he just swapped the main battery over and nothing was lost or needed...

    P2471 Powertrain fault code, S212 E Class 220d Bluetec.

    The DPF pressure sensor loves to fail on these engines. Italian tune up is pretty much a waste of time if the EML light comes on or is on. These cars will regenerate the DPF at less than 2000 rpm and restart a regen if the car stops or the parameters aren't met during a regen cycle. If it's the...

    Which spark plugs and pollen filter to buy for C55? advise please

    Why not activated carbon? Without activated carbon all the smells from outside the car come in. They really do make a difference

    Check fault codes, anything else is pure guesswork. Sorry

    Engine mount vibration help!

    If you mean passenger side engine mount, then this is for some reason, the one that seems to perish. Cheap and easy to replace. Almost certainly that's your problem
