e220cdi

My e220cdi (2001 model 210 chassis) was starting running for about 3 seconds and then stopping. When I tried to start it again it was turning over for a period of time when the key was released, but not catching until the 3rd/4th attempt. After 2 diagnostic tests and a visit to the local merc...

:devil: HI The car keeps draining the battery and a new battery was recently fitted by Mercedes Dealers. I have now been told that the heater box could be draining the battery and this could be extremely expensive to fix, they also said its a known problem and I may get some goodwill towards...

Hi I have a problem on E220 CDI (2001), on 103,000 miles with full MB service history, last service about 3,000 miles ago. Symptoms started today are intermittent, and not always present (they seemed to clear after a short run on the motorway) but have returned. At idle engine is very lumpy...

The faclift gives 20hp more - how is this achived? Is it a new/modified engine or a better management system or what? And it does not take a genius to work out why I am asking...... :D :devil: Guess anything I did would kill the warranty though!

Hi Could one of you guys with an E220 CDI physicaly check the part number/s needed to fill this hole. The ash tray is missing. The part number on the russian website is wrong. So could some one please check it physicaly. Thanks Steve B

Is this a good deal

How well powered is a 220CDi E-class? I know the 270 is optimum, but would the 220 be terrible? From what I can see it is not THAT much heavier than the C class Also, was there a facelift E class around or after that time? How can I tell the difference? As always, thanks

My w211 e220cdi gives off blue smoke in the morning for about 5 minutes. During this time (and maybe a little afterwards) the idle is irregular. Once cleared, the car gives off no smoke for the rest of the day. Performance of the car is A1, though the injectors do sound a little noisy...

Hi All. E220 CDI (2000) 112 k (W210) Having a problem when initially pulling away in 1st gear (auto), i put my foot on accelarator and there is a delayed action when taking up the drive, noticeably slow off the mark. Have just had all 4 injectors replaced and problem has started since...

Anyone know where i can buy a pair of decent but not to expensive wipers for my 2000 E220CDi??? PS - advice on how to fit them would be much apreciated! :) Denise x PS my car only has a single wiper

Hi, I have had 2 cats replaced on my 2001 E220cdi - both done under warranty as Merc stated that it was a known fault. Bad news though, its (they?) have gone again! Apparently, the ceramic breaks up and blocks the exhaust, which causes lots of black smoke and a loss of aceleration. I have the...

Hi everyone Wanted some advice on an issue I'm having with my w211 e220cdi. The car is a late 2002 and has covered some 100k miles. The engine seems to have a clatter to it, which does not sound right. Reading previous reports I thought it might be the injectors and was on the verge of...

I noticed this weekend that there was a leak from below the engine bay of my E220. When i touched it, it was clear that it was not thick enough to be oil, but instead was diesel! Scary thought considering it could have ignited. It had leaked onto the plastic shield that sits underneath the...

My E220CDI (July03) has done 55K miles. I have noticed that the economy seems to be getting worse. I was getting around 43mpg this has now reduced to 39.5mpg. I would have thought at this mileage things would be perhaps better. Initially I thought it may be linked to ambient temperature...

Hi, Just discovered this forum from google. I've done 89,000 mainly motorway miles. Last 5,000 miles I've had a juddering on light acceleration especially uphill. It feels like a clutch slipping on a manual car. I've just noticed a comment on "what car" that gearbox software problems are quite...

With a baby in tow and another on the way :eek: , its finally time for the wife and I to ditch the coupe :( (BMW330Ci) and join the ranks of estate owners. We plan to buy used-approved (preferably a 211), we're very keen on Mercs (and the Saab 9-5), and ordinarily wouldn't hesitate rushing out...
