Hi, I have the superchager not cutting in on my slk230 (98) with fault codes P1525,P0805,P0806, I think this could be a electrical problem, does anyone know where i should start first, also does the wiring relate back to the K40 or something else ?

The car was plugged in yesterday and threw the following codes. They were then all cleared, car restarted.. The only code to come back straight away was the P0100 (MAF). P0100 Mass Air Flow (MAF) Circuit Malfunction P0304 Code - Cylinder #4 Misfire P0307 Code - Cylinder #7 Misfire P0300...

Thought I'd just summarise a number of faults that have just happened recently (no idea why they all came together - cold weather??) 1/ When facing uphill (or level and cold night), the car would start then immediately stall. The car would then need at least 30 seconds of churning before it...

would you have to get the faults cleared after replacing a MAF on a W210 320CDI, to get it out of 'limp' mode (no kick down and 3000rpm limit). Or just putting a new MAF in would do it ??
