cuts

The engine (E220 W210) cuts out unexpectedly while driving without any misfiring or any other obvious indications apart from the EPC light coming on as soon as I turn the ignition on and stays on throughout. When the engine stops, it starts again almost straight away. I presume that there is a...

My mercedes was cutting out when the fuel guage reached a quarter tank. When investigated by the breakdown patrol it was noticed one side of the saddle tank had fuel in it and the other side was empty. The local garage replaced the pump behind the driver seat with a non mercedes...

Hi, This has been going on for more than a year now. A hiss followed by crackling occurs for a couple of seconds when the compressor is first switched on. I don’t mean when the compressor continues to run between cycles of low to high displacement. I mean when the evaporator temp drops...

EDIT: car is 2008 S320 CDI, W221 Hi, I filled 15L of Kerosene home heating oil by accident. The handle was black and it was beside the diesel so i thought it was diesel. When I realised what I had done I put in 20L of diesel. Car drove fine. The next day I drove about 15miles no problem...

Hi, I have a 96 C200 auto. Today it decided it didnt want to play. It started and immediately cut (as it does if you do not start it quick enough when you unlock it) I have also noticed the alarm no longer bleeps upon unlock/lock and the red LED in the rear view mirror no longer...

Hey guys I just brought my W124 e220 today, drove brilliantly back home and I was very happy!! Just went to start it again after it sitting there in the drive, i must add it's a little cold!! The engine started up for a second then shut down again, I then gave it some throttle and it...

My E320 (V6 petrol) cuts out a second after starting. This is totally out of the blue, its been running perfectly until today. My first though is that it must be an electrical sensor as its obviously getting fuel & spark. Crankshaft sensor perhaps?

My 1991 W124 estate has an annoying problem, I have to fill it with petrol REALLY slowly or the fuel bubbles up and makes the petrol pump cut out. I can only fill at a rate of about 1 litre every 10 seconds, so a 50l fill takes about 8 minutes. BTW, the car came with an invoice for a new fuel...

Hi I have a 2002 CD220 CDI, a couple of weeks ago the car had been standing for a couple of weeks, and on starting it ran for about 10 seconds then stopped. It then struggled to start but did after many attempts, ran after that ok for a few days and the same happened again. Once starting seems...

So I'm cruising on the motorway and all electrics fail, car shuts down instantly. I get out, loosen the battery terminals and wiggle them about. The car starts up again. This has been happening on and off for weeks. So as I was wiggling the terminals one day, I noticed sparking from the...

I have a 2005 Viano Auto Diesel. Driving on Saturday evening and after about 30 mins as I was driving at about 35mph the engine suddenly cut out, I managed to coast it to the side of the road. Tried to restart but it was just cranking over and not firing. After waiting for about 20 mins it...

Hello all, Very new to forums, i have a 1972 280 CE Coupe (W114.072), and it drives very nicely. However, when i come to a stop, or when the car is standing still, it shudders/shakes and cuts out. It is fine when the car is moving or in neutral, however standing still in Drive or reverse...

Hi guys. a couple of days ago my c200 (w202) started flat spotting at random through the rev band,then yesterday it would start and not rev above 1500 until the temp rose to 40 then all was well apart from a slight hesitation on pull away. during the day it got progressively...

After start up if i accelerate quickly rather than gradually i get a slight judder and after this the power cuts out seems like the turbo has stopped working however if i pull over and restart the car it will be fine. If i start the car and drive normally for a few minutes i can drive the car...

I have a W126 300 se 1991. I have recently had the car cut out on me whilst driving. It often occurs when I make a left turn, but it has happened whilst driving straight. I have read many articles that it could be possibly linked to the Fuel pump relay. Can anyone suggest any other places to...

Hi, I'm trying to put an Old G class back on the road that's been sitting for a fair few years, it fires up but when the initial choke goes out so does the car, it wont idel unless I keep my foot on the accelerator and if I rev it high I sometime get it small backfire but not always?? The...
