Hello everyone, had my W124 for a few months now, it's just about run in at 146000 miles.
I have two issues one an inconvenience the other an almighty pain.
The car only gets used at the weekend but it's every weekend. She starts on the button ticks over and pulls away fine. When the problem occurs it's usually after gentle steady running on a dual carriageway, you will come off the main road and then the next time you accelerate or pull away she coughs splutters and sometimes cuts out. Now you can start her once, twice, or ten times and you can accelerate and certainly not pull away but she will tickover. After a while she will start and drive just fine, then she's fine for the rest of the weekend.
Any ideas?
Second problem the heater only gets hot when turned all the way to demist, I suspect the roller switches themselves?
Thanks in advance.
Derrick
