cutout

2002 Avantgarde, She starts fine when cold; but, occasionally cuts-out when warm and quite predictably fails to start when warm. usually a cooling off period helps. When she fails to start she will crank and usually try to fire-up, often running very rough, before 'dropping off'. This started in...

Hi all, I'm getting fed up with this now and sorry for those who recall my previous posts on the topic. Every year when the Spring comes I get the same problem - lack of performance once she has warmed up. All is fine when she's cold, as soon as the temperature gauge passes about 70...

Hi all, Can anyone tell me where the starter cutout relay box is located? I know it is in a box with screw that need undoing but cannot locate this box. The link below shows the box and the relays within it however cannot locate it, can anyone point me in the right direction? Bert...

Has anyone any experience on these - good or bad ? Here is a link I seen on the USA sites http://www.dmhperformance.com/ecutout.htm

Hi guys, Yesterday I got a new alternator put into my 2003 e320. Since I left the specialist, I noticed when accelerating from a standing start or nearly standing start, the radio volume would cut off for about 2 secs and come right back on again. Nothing on command screen shows any error...

Had a strange thing the other day. I had driven for about 20 minutes – taking my Son to work. When I pulled off the by-pass & up to a junction, the car just cut out. It was as if I’d stalled it, but it’s auto. I started it again & it ran o.k. About 5 minutes later as I was dropping him off, it...

Hi all, Mt recently acquired R129 SL 280 has cut out on me 3 times (in the c. 300 miles I've done) and has a hesitation on pulling away. Of the 3 cut outs, one was while pulling away,the others were just after starting. This appears more pronounced when cold, as I didn't notice it on the...

Hi Any ideas on this one anybody! Occasionally on my e class i turn the wiper on and it stalls which in turn trips out the stereo and triggers the srs airbag light as if its been turned off and on? The only way to get it back is keep clicking the wiper switch or getting out and pushing the...

In my quest to find the perfect Merc I have stumbled across a few nice S500 W220 examples on which the VIN decoder reveals the following option: 479 cylinder cut-out system (ZAS) (с 04.08.1997) I googled for this and one site had a pretty good explanation that basically says that the engine...

Hi all, Just thought I'd tell you about my experience with the official MB dealership in Stratford. I had (and still have) a problem with my SLK 230 (1999 T-reg) where the engine sometimes just cuts out. Turning the key all the way off and then on again doesn't start the car up again. The...

I have a 03 W211 E320 cdi. Since new, it has had a recurring problem with the Audio 50/COMMAND system. When the car starts, after about 5 secs to sometimes 1 min, the radio suddenly crackles, cuts out, then comes back on after only a couple of seconds. This normally disconnects the phone, and...

Hi All, Here is a tale of my issue and the solution in case anyone else encounters something similar. My car's a 1998 SL320. A couple of weeks ago my car stalled at a set of traffic lights and proved "difficult to restart", taking 3 turns of the ignition (am used to a first turn clean...
