Hi all, recently bought a c220cdi auto 2004 year w203. Dont think its in limp mode as I can reach 50mph if I wait long enough but is lacking power. My son has a Launch x431 it is showing the following codes.
2136-4 glow plug
2509-2 heater boost control module
2359 charge air system too low...
Ok , I'm in a pickle with my 2001 ml 320 . It starts up fine and when put into drive pulls away ok , however after a few minutes it starts to sound like a tractor and theres a massive loss in power . Is this the limp mode that I've seen other people mention or the coil packs ? I had a mechanic...
I think I must have the most unrusty 210 in existence. I've an MOT due in about a month so I've used a few days of the holidays to investigate and solve any rust issues that might affect an MOT. I also want to preserve the car as far as possible and deal with anything asap. I took front and rear...
Hi All
So today was a pretty nice sunday afternoon, took the S55 out for a a good drive down some country roads. giving it abit of the beans on the straights, and going easy through the bends in Sport mode (Still auto, not the speed shift mode) and obviously slowing down and getting back up to...
Hi all, 1st time poster so please be gentle:o
My beloved 2007 E280 cdi estate (105k miles) has developed a problem and I wonder if you guys can shed some light.
Basically the engine is dropping into limp home mode. This seems as if it might be temperature related as it is nearly always ok 1st...

Hi guys
My vito will only go up to 70mph at the min and is defo not as quick as it usually is. even when flat out at 70 when you come to a gradual hill it slows right down to as little as 50mph.
Can anyone shed any light of the problem.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I know this subject has been widely covered on the forum and I have searched and read tons of threads but the problem I am experiencing is very specific so just wondered if there was anyone out there who could suggest what might be causing it. My car is a 2009 clk 320cdi with 60K on the...
I have a w203 class 220cdi, at first the power just went with the car knocking then cut out, so we replaced two injectors, 3 and 4, it started but still has a horrid miss fire and knocking. We then looked and the oil was all clumpy and sluge like, so we took the rocker cover off and cleaned all...
Hi..I'm 0zzy1953..I'm a new member so be gentle with me.
Noticed a lack of power a few weeks ago so had my ML 270 serviced with a mate of mine. He did it..said everything was fine engine wise and that I had a problem with auto box no kickdown. He admitted he was no auto expert. I disagree with...
Well, I seem to be having a little prob with my CLK. Actually, there are two of them, that bloody ESP/BAS light went on again, but that's a different problem.
For now, lack of throttle response and torque. The car used to feel all right, pretty punchy even at part throttle, until i decided...
Have problem with my 500SEC. it seriusly lacks power and acclereration. It starts perfectly, idles perfectly, responsive and almost normal on low rpm and partial throttle but when the throttle is opened up more then a quarter then it really acclerates slowly and is really hard to get over...
Hi,
w202 C200 automatic. Severe lack of power when cold. Has been getting worse over a year or so. You can put your foot flat to the floor and the revs remain low. Car performs fine when it's warmed up
Any ideas what it could be? I was thinking some sensor or other like the air mass?
Hi everyone,
Ever since I've had my '92 190E 2.6 it's had a bit of an annoying problem (or set of problems), which now seems to be getting worse.
Firstly, it never tends to start very easily. It always does go, but often has to churn for a bit longer than you'd expect, particularly when cold...
I bought a UK imported R320 CDI 2007 model through a local dealer.
It’s got 42k miles on the clock and everything seems to check out consistent with the mileage.
Recently, while revving up from the low gears, there is some kind of engine/gearbox? jerking. Sometimes once it clears the low...
Help please. I have a 2008 W204 with full Comand including all the funtions of Comand ie IPOD etc but when using the DAB Radio apart from the usual station information I cannot get any info to appear when I select the INFO option, is this a fault or is there something I need to do? I believe I...
As the title says, I have a problem with storage when I drive to our cruise so I am considering using a Boot rack.
has anyone used one and does anyone know where I can get one.

Hi all,
I will go to a service with star, however just wanted to get some advice in advance.
my 2004 ML270cdi sometimes cannot go over 2000 rpm. That is frustrating because when I need to accelerate it happens very slow. The point is it does not happen all the time. I do not know am I imaging...
