    W124 goes in to "Limp Mode" I think.

    Hi Graeme, Thanks for your speedy reply, do you think it's worth me fitting one of the BU931T type that I bought in error and just solder in the 3 pins, or try the other VB027 just in case the first one was a duffer, Iv'e nothing to lose? Thanks, Les

    W124 goes in to "Limp Mode" I think.

    Hi grober, I know it's quite some time ago since you gave me advice regarding the fault on my W124 E220 cabriolet but I hope you can help further.

    W124 coil packs

    Thank you for your speedy reply, it looks to me like you have to take the inlet manifold off to get to them and remove the wiring, this will disturb the engine wiring loom which I didn't want to. Thanks, Lester.
