Hi folks, 1998 UK E300 TD What is the boost threshold on these engines? When should they begin to build boost? What engine speed should the torque converter stall at? I've picked up a car which behaves perfectly well at autobahn speeds (90 mph) but falls off-boost at 70 mph and is...

Hi guys, new to the forum here, hopefully someone can help me out! I have a Mercedes sprinter 02 311 here and is suffering from the standard lack of boost issues. I have searched various threads and that has helped to a point and a couple parts have been replaced. At the moment, we have...

Does anyone know where to find the boost pressure sensor on a 2003 ML270? As always thanks in advance

My car has had a scan and the mysterious Boost Pressure Regulator Fault has re-appeared. This interlinks with sharp rev changes at higher revs (not gear changes) and most recently limp home. I'm thinking that variable vanes on Turbo or the actuator are seizing? 1. Am I likely to be...

With 128,000 miles my car has been running exceptionally well recently. But, for the past 5 days it has been losing boost. What I mean is, it starts normally and accelerates like the proverbial scalded cat, but about 3 minutes in...no boost. It isn't going into limp home mode, it does kick...
