Hi first let me thank ALL for this very informative site without whose help I could not still be driving my car. I was having trouble starting my e 320 cdi and posted for help and the most likely culprit was the crank position sensor purchased cps and set about replacing said item ! to say...

Folks A quick note to thank a couple of guys who helped me out today With the help of some forum members (you know who you all are) I had a failing part diagnosed on my E55. The Crank Positioning Sensor. To be fair, this was exactly the problem. Cheers to Paul and Andy at Eurocharged in...

Had a problem with my c43 amg sometimes failing to start up a few months ago. Phoned mobilo and they diagnosed a failed cps, had the cps ( crankshaft position sensor ) replaced at home and paid £117.60 ( £98+ vat ) Browsing the mb website after the mobilo chap had departed I came...

Hi a friends c43 cut out whilst stationary at traffic lights, car was warm up to normal temperature and cut out leaving all ignition lights on, he went to restart the car which turned over as per normal quite a few times before eventually restarting. Next day the same issue, once warm car cuts...

Hi Does anyone know how to test these? its coming up on the diagnostic but would like to test before I fork out for something I may not need Camshaft position sensor (CPS) Thanks in advance

Am aware that the most common symtom of CPS failure is that the engine tends to die at idle ( at lights, junctions etc), usually when the engine is up to operating temperature.. The CPS's job is to detect a missing tooth on the flywheel. What I have often wondered is why the sensor seems to fail...

Hi guys it's been a while. Can any one give me any information As to where the cps is located on my model of car. Some have said it is under the air filter. I have looked and cannot find it at all !? Am I looking in the wrong area ?? If any one has a guide specific to my model that would be...

'90 300CE 12v This generally happens when slowing to a stop - so nearly at idle - dash lights come on. Once I have caught it on the throttle and fired up again. Once it kept happening on startup - catch it on throttle to keep revs up Does this sound like a CPS problem ? Any ideas please

Guys is the CPS on a 55 a DIY? Where is it located. Car is turning over for longer and longer before firing up.

Has anyone on here changed a crank positioning sensor on a C32? I'm on holiday in the Isle of Wight and mines just gone lol. Don't really fancy getting recovered l the way home, and I don't really fancy paying some amature mobile mechanic to have a go just because I don't have tools on me. I...

My ML320 has without doubt been one of the most trouble free cars I have ever owned, but it has recently developed an issue. I am pretty sure its the CPS however as hard as I have looked on this site and others, there doesn't seem to be a definitive list of the symptoms that could confirm if the...

Hi All, I'm a newbie to this board and hoping I can get some advice from the members. I Own a CLK500 w209 2003 with lpg. The car is absolutely amazing. I have a starting problem and the local specialist has said the crankshaft sensor needs replacing. I managed to get a febi part but for the...

I though it was the crank position sensor after reading lots of posts. Car would start fine when the engine was cold but as soon as it had reached running temperature it was stubborn to turn over. I changed the cps to no avail and ended up going to a main dealer and having them look over it...

Hi, I do hope someone can help with this. I have a 1999 230 clk cab. The car was not used for about 2-3 months and is parked in my driveway, when I went to use it last week it would not start. Had the battery checked and charged and it is OK. When I put the key in ignition all dash lights and...

Guys, I'm at my Mum's changing the crankshaft position sensor. Got the old one out, but it's got oil on the end of it!! Is that right? Thought they were meant to be dry? Should I put the new one in?

Hi All, First time poster but have found info on here invaluable in the past so i hope you can help. I have a 2004 E200 Kompressor, 180Klm on clock, had regular services and just had one about 3 weeks ago as the engine sounded like it was pulling dirty gunk from the sump(sorry im not a mechanic...
