    Vito 120 CDi fault code - Help Required

    Thanks Keith. The MAF bolts straight to the airbox. The connection tube to the Turbo inlet is in good condition. No leaks in those areas. The 0101 fault will not reset fully on my basic diagnostic tool. The fault is always pending. Was just wondering if it could be anything else or what else...

    Vito 120 CDi fault code - Help Required

    I wonder if anybody help me identify the fault on a Vito 120 (V6 CDi). Van went into limp mode but no EML for about 25mins. Stopped van and restarted. EML light came on and still in limp mode. Read code via basic OBD reader which suggested code P0101, something to do with MAF circuit...

    vito 122 sport x or vw sportline

    Our vans are commercial use, service vehicles. They are highly spec 120's. Stop start journeys and long runs. Run around fully loaded all day @ 3000kgs. HP is king. Economy is irrelevant. Engineers love them and beleive me there isn't much else important that happy engineers.

    Here is the link to a somewhat 'tongue in cheek' video of my tech drilling out the DPF honeycomb. http://youtu.be/A1gT5IgoeSU

    OE642 V6 CDi instaled into Vito 120

    Two of them are seized almost closed some I closed the others also. Can you explain their function to me?

    I think the tech doing the DPF software delete will write a complete new map incorporating your modified ECU map, EGR delete and DPF delete. It's unlikely he will do the hardware DPF removal but to be honest that was the easiest but.

    Also I do not have to use that expensive low ash engine oil.

    Turbo lag has completely gone. Van takes off like a scolded cat. Plant the throttle and the motor responds. Best thing I've ever done and in hindsight should have done it as soon as I bought the van. I wouldn't have ever had any of the multiple problems I've had over the tears with EGR valves...

    OE642 V6 CDi instaled into Vito 120

    Having done some more research, I've found out these are the inlet manifold swirl ports. Two of mine have seized and due to restricted access in the engine bay of the van, the engine wound have to be dropped out to get to the manifolds for either replacement or freeing up. I have disconnected...

    Or my Vito 120CDi EGR Hardware and Software delete. DPF Hardware and Software delete. ECU remap ASR can be permanently switched off if desired I have no idea what the output is but is imagine over 250HP and over well over 500ft pound of torque. The Acceleration is incredible over stock...

    OE642 V6 CDi instaled into Vito 120

    Can anybody tell me what function the following component serves on this engine. In detail..... On each Vee there is an inlet manifold. Each manifold has three protruding separate ports. These ports are connected to each other with a plastic linkage. The plastic linkage is then connected to an...

    Sorry for long delay in update. Had DPF and EGR software delete. Had DPF removed and filtered extracted (well actually we go a big dill and drilled it out. Easy actually. Had ECU remapped for improved torque and acceleration. Overall, all good so far apart from the following.... 1. Propshaft...

    So what did YOU do to improve your Mercedes this weekend?

    Pulled a dead bird out of grille, ordered a new grille, washed it, checked oil and added 2L of lube. Looked at the skanky Steel wheels and decided to put the 18" AMG Silver 5 Slots back on. Washed, but couldn't be bothered to polish it. Another 2k miles coming up this week.

    Well I am coming in here. Very entertaining thy the way. Saved me from dancing on Ice. Ironically, I live in Chatham, the nicer end. Not offended in any way with the Chav Quote. It's scarily accurate actually. There is a high 'Chav Populous' in chatham. Most live in harmony with their peers...

    What tyres to fit to Vito 120

    Lol, took them off years ago. Tyres were getting abused and weren't really practical for work use. I put the oem steel wheels back on but I am starting to regret it with all of the aggro of getting decent tyres in the right size at a price I do not have to sell a kidney for! Might dig the AMG 5...
