Hi everyone. I thought i had previously posted on this problem but can now not find the thread. I don't know if it was removed or i just dreamed i had posted it. So excuse me if i'm repeating myself or posting in the wrong area. I have a ongoing problem with my c200 Kompressor. It previously...

Hello, I'm looking for some information on changing the cam magnets on my C180 M271 engine as I have got oil leaking into the wiring harness. I'm about to order the magnets, O rings, grommets and the additional wiring adaptors to stop this problem. Is there anything more I need to do and...

Having read a lot of useful info for a while I am now in need of some guidance. On my 2004 C180 I have a P0170 code which has reoccurred after a year. It was cleared by replacing the after cat O2 sensor. On investigation the pipe from the cam cover to the intake after the Maf showed some oil...

Hi, I am new here. We are driving a 2007 E200, so M271 engine. Because so much is written about the wear of the timing chain and sprockets I decided to take a look: I found a lot of teeth broken off of the sprockets. The chain was still very tight, so that might have saved the engine. I am...

Can someone please list the warnings signs of issues? Bought a 2007 CLK 200K yesterday which misfired on a warm restart. Car has full MB history, recent service and 45,000m. Restarted perfectly. Had been on near 200m run with 1 stop. Much appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to establish what changes were made when the M271 was superseded by the M274. I know the M274 still has a simplex timing chain, but I understand that it was changed from a roller type to another type to stop the stretching problems? I'm I correct in this, and did it work?

Hi all, I have a E200 CGI 2011 cabriolet with 61k on the clock. At 57k I had the EML come on with the fault relating to the camshaft sensors which were replaced at a cost of £500. The check engine light came on last night and I'm being told that it is the same issue. The sensors were...

My wife has a 2005 C180k (M271) which recently has had a few issues. At idle and low speed, the engine is shaking noticeably. I have scanned for codes and it brought up misfire on all cylinders and a MAF error code. The spark plugs have been changed recently so there ok. I doubt all 4 coil...

Has anyone done their own oil change on a W204 with the M271 engine. Book says oil capacity is 5.5 L I've done a couple of oil changes now and if I vacuum out the oil and put a carefully measured 5.5 L back it comes to a little below half way on the dipstick. I'm not worried about running with...
