    C350 cdi. Running but not on all 6?

    Given your description it may be 1. Glow plug(s) not functioning, or 2. Glow plug controller not functioning. The glow plugs heat during the first couple of minutes to ensure smooth running. If they do not heat the engine will still start and run, but there will be noticeable roughness. In...

    C350 CDI 'limp mode'

    I’d take it back for “further investigations” as you have engaged a shop and report the scan codes here. How many miles? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    C350 CDI 'limp mode'

    It is better to scan the vehicle with a tool designed to read the MB coding. Often the typical generic readers only provide a general direction of the problem. Taking it to a dealer will cost an hours worth of diagnostic time. You may find a local independent shop that can scan and diagnose...

    E350Cdi Starting issues

    Misfires at cold startup certainly point to glow plugs. The long cranking points to fuel. When was fuel filter last changed? Generally they are a 20,000 mile maintenance item. Have the air filters been checked? This is another area that can impact operations. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    CLS63 Airmatic collapsed

    My guess is that a line came off. Maybe a consequence of the failed pulley and associated debris flying around. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    ML350 W164 gearbox problem and limp mode

    You need to have the car scanned and report any codes found. There’s too many possibilities to properly begin any diagnostic. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    OM642 Green O-Ring replacement instructions?

    As I recall doing this on my ML I did need to remove the bolts holding the resonator on the engine. The lower end of the resonator connects to a hose so there’s room there. I found that putting things back together was the challenging part. The O-rings, when new, make for a tight fit. The...

    Audio 20 Won’t read discs

    You could try cleaning the reader itself. Buy one of those lens cleaning disks with the little brushes. Could just be enough dust on the laser that is to blame. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    W212 E350 not changing into 7th until 74MPH...?!

    ”After a recent ECU/emissions update” I recall a similar discussion on the MB UK site. Same observations. I’m suspecting that the update was designed in response to the VW/Bosch debacle. Did you request the update? In my experience with MB the software is not automatically updated unless...

    Om642. Hard brake pedal. Engine issue?

    The schematic for my ‘08 OM642 (US) shows a BAS travel sensor mounted below the master cylinder. Not sure if this means anything for your situation, but figured I’d offer it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Changing rear coil spring on 07 cls 320 cdi advice

    Agree with using the centered spring compressor. I did similar to what you are suggesting and had quite the difficult time of it. To make matters worse the springs I received were incorrect. I had the correct set installed at the dealer and returned the wrong ones for a refund. Buy, borrow or...
