I'll check, but last time I looked at the dipstick hole for the gearbox there wasn't anything attached to the cap.

No dipstick on gearbox, but changes through gears fine otherwise.

If I restart, it's OK, until the next hill. Then repeats issue.

Good day people... The C220 coupe, has now developed it's own speed restriction when negotiating any hills upwards..(It's an automatic) Fine on flat, accellerates fine....gets to a hill and into limp with nowt over 2500 rpm! I have replaced the MAF sensor, cleared all the air filter and housing...

RESULT ! When I initially removed injector 1, I needed to remove the top of the injector where the piezo unit is to be able to get a spanner on to the body to twist gently to assist removal. Errantly, I LOST the minute "pip" (Not a ball as some suggest) mounted in the jet hole. This I spotted...

It's a 211, and I hadn't thught about the conneciton pics... Good suggestion !. I'll see what the pins are like, and run through the connectors generally

These have a 4 in a circle.. so perhaps they don't need coding

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.............. Did *lots* of cranking, with jump leads attached to allow longer strarting... I'll ask a local garage if they can test the pressure at the rail... Thaniks to all for suggestions

Removed and replaced an injector, and the copper ring at the base. (I realise the injector may need "Coding" to improve emmissions, but it shouldn't prevent it starting) Bled system to each of the 5 injectors, and ensured no air leaks Diagnostics..... Had a man out to read the codes. Appears...

Diagnostics..... Had a man out to the E270 today to read the codes. Appears that the only code in the system is one for the 5th cylinder glow plug isn't playing the game. BUT.... On further investigation, there is no signal at any of the injector heads, but there is signal at the cam and crank...

Yup... Tried that today... Bled all 5 injectors at their heads.... Fully charged battery... Added jump leads from her car too.... Spins over very well....Don't start !. Buggered if I can see why it's not starting.... I only changed 1 injector and copper seal ffs !... May have to get the codes...

In that you mean hold the key in the start position instead of hold and let go ?

Further issues starting now...... After much cleaning of crud (Black death stylee) from Injector 1 area, I *may* have accidentally lost the tiny ball in the top of the injector under the removable head section. SO.... Replaced the injector as a precaution... and now the bugger won't start. Turns...

Hmmm... I'll have a read..... Currently, all the parts within the top are in the correct order, and assembled easily with no issues. But........ Car won't start, turns over for the usual timed start sequence, and sounds as if it's trying to start, then as expected stops at the end of the start...

Plan for tomorrow... Didn't want to disturb any more.....but it'll be the only way probably. Should have taken pics I suppose.

Success !.... With the washer.... BUT.....The nice clean cloth I had all teh top of the injector parts laid out on.....decided to flap over in the breeze and now all the inside of the top of the injector parts aren't in the correct order i I put them in as I disassembled :-( Has anyone a link...

I got the injector out.... warmth and WD40, and cleaned up nicely... It's the darn washer that's eluding escaping easily...... Today I'm trying the screwdriver trick and see if I can succeed.... I find it usually better to ask those that have experienced the problem first hand than dive in and...

No.... I havent..... And ?

Yup... Tried hot air gun to loosen, air, hook end on stout wire... Still stuck

45 mins to get the injector out of No1 hole and the darn copper washer will NOT budge..... Still stuck at the bottom.... Anyone any tips for getting the darn thing out please? I have a reseat tool and new (Honda Civic) copper washers ready to fit.....
