    E350 Coupe c207, No response from both pumps for multicontour seats

    thankyou Paul for jump-starting my thread. I was waiting till warmer weather to tackle removing the seat backs but David's answer has given me another line of enquiry re " broken connector". I had looked previously under the drivers seat and the wiring on my coupe model seemed pretty well...

    E350 Coupe c207, No response from both pumps for multicontour seats

    Hello all, New (to me) 2012 e350cdi coupe. I've done some research regarding my dead to the world multicontour seats and learned that the coupe models actaully have a pump each hidden away in the seat backrests. Now before I run the risk of breaking off numerous plastic tabs when trying to...

    Comand E350cdi coupe---Is it safe to do a HARD Reset from the engineering menu??

    Well I seem to been lucky ! :-) Excellent, it's done the trick & all now working as designed ( i had already done the reset from the normal user interfacer with no joy). If only all mercedes faults could be so straightforward ! thanks Martin

    Comand E350cdi coupe---Is it safe to do a HARD Reset from the engineering menu??

    Re map deletion, Well I thought it would probably be unlikely but I dont fancy the grief of fixing things if I make a BIG mistake :-) I did think of the fuse pulling but I'm imagining that the hard reset is there for a reason which if it "refreshes" the installation might be my saviour, but...

    Heater still not working properly

    Hi, Strange coincidence, (see the end of this post). Your description matches ( I think) what was happening on my 2006 clk. There is a (2nd) temperature sensor located in the overhead dome light fitting which being suspended by very thin wires is prone to failure as one of the connecting wires...

    Help! ---CLK 320 cdi --no reaction to turning key to crank starter position

    FInal Diagnosis as promised Starter replaced today. Mech stated it was the solenoid part of the assembly that had gone short circuit. Although this is available as a separate part he reckoned that swopping was fiddly ( ie additional labouur charge) and a new Hella starter was just around £30...

    Help! ---CLK 320 cdi --no reaction to turning key to crank starter position

    Thanks but unfortunately yes, the inhibitor in question prevents the starter motor from operating unless the shifter is in Park ( or as I have recently learned in neutral). the one you describe assists if putting your foot on the brake fails to allow the shifter to move out of park. Life could...

    Help! ---CLK 320 cdi --no reaction to turning key to crank starter position

    many thanks for this further diagnostic tip. Just been to try and it does make the usual noise on key insertion ( which i was unaware what it was doing!) and I establsihed that it does unlock the steering. I also located my spare key in the hopw that my usual keys' transponder might have...

    Help! ---CLK 320 cdi --no reaction to turning key to crank starter position

    Been on charge for 2 hours now and reads 12.7 volts. I've also tried disconnecting the battery and reconnecting after 10 mins--still the same prob. The only thing different when I opened the car this morning was the mirrors initially failed to return to the "open" position as I got in the car...

    Can faulty CDI injectors be diagnosed on STAR/ bosch service centres?

    As the thread starter I ought to jump in with a reply. Star refers to the mercedes motors' group diagnostic and servicing machine used by all official merc garages and many independants who specialise in mercedes/smart. I added the word servicing machine because it can be used for a lot more...

    Can faulty CDI injectors be diagnosed on STAR/ bosch service centres?

    Yes, it's the comfort and less stress whcih led me to the clk as I now have a regular fast roads 160mikes journey to the west country and I'm getting old and like to feel relaxed over longer trips. For this role I'm very happy with the cdi but I was not intending to keep the alfa for all my...

    Can faulty CDI injectors be diagnosed on STAR/ bosch service centres?

    I'm definitely not a fan of the diesel "tick". Suprisingly the alfa 156 JTD I ran (and still have) was hardly noticeable at all. In this case the diesel noise is masked rather than not there. Alfa include a "resonance chamber" in the induction tract and this produces a nice throaty roar under...

    Can faulty CDI injectors be diagnosed on STAR/ bosch service centres?

    Hi, Bought a 06 320cdi clk few months back having read what super smooth engines they were. Well it's certainly very smooth indeed but I'm dissapointed with the Diesel hammering type noise that is evident during acceleration up to about 2K revs max. Both non merc diesels I've owned before...
