    R129 500SL Misfire

    The engine loom is back on my 1994 R129, which I am going to collect on Monday, sh1t or bust... The car has been standing for about three months, and now there's a misfire. The seller is getting the spark plugs changed. If that doesn't cure it, it will I think be distributor cap or rotor...

    Slight misfire on idle / low revs

    As title ..... I have a w210 240 v6 which has a slight mis-fire on idle and very low revs, I have cleaned the maf sensor with zero result (so .. maybe a faulty maf??) next up will be plugs and plug lead testing along with finding any potential air leaks. What I have also noticed is the gear...

    M104 Misfire (1996 Mercedes S280)

    I always felt my car had a slight misfire (barely detectable, to the point that i thought i was imagining it) Today though, after a 15mile motorway journey i pulled to a stop, the revs dropped and the car has had a very notable missfire since. I changed the plugs 3 months ago, so (currently i...

    C32 random engine misfire

    Afternoon all, I have had this random engine misfire for a while now and it's been too several indy garages and even main dealer. All they tell me is that it's misfiring on cylinders 1 and 6.

    C32 strange misfire

    Hi all, My C32 has developed a misfire/rough running in the last few days and it's a bit of a puzzler, as I put the car on to Star at my local dealer (a friend is a tech there) and it showed no misfires at all. I was kind of hoping that it would, so I'd have somewhere to aim for, but it came...

    W124 misfire

    Hi all, I know there are a lot of threads about misfires in W124s, but I can't find one that quite matches mine. I recently resolved an issue that turned out to be a faulty HT lead only to discover that the engine (E320) will no longer rev beyond 3000rpm. Until that point, it runs smooth...

    Kind of misfire?

    Hi, looking for some ideas, my W124 230CE (M102.982 I think) has developed what appears to be a misfire but tbh it feels more like the engine is being choked! Not permanent but randomly will just lose power and feels as I say, like in the old days of a manual choke, that it was fully on when...

    W204 Diesel - Slight Loss of Power (Like a misfire)

    I have a 2007 W204 220CDI auto with 170k miles on the clock. It has spent most of its life on motororway journeys, both in England and Europe.

    Misfire after standing for 10 days

    Went on holiday for 10 days and when we came back my C350 CDI had a terrible misfire, felt like it was running on 3 cylinders, luckily it cleared up after about a mile. Is this normal or should I have it looked at? Been running fine ever since, so not sure why this occurred.

    W202 C200 random misfire

    Hoping someone can point me in the right direction, I'm stumped now with this. Engine will drop onto three cylinders, no pattern, hot or cold, the only connection is it only happens when you lift off the throttle, then go again (junctions, slip roads etc) Turning it off and back on resets...

    C63 misfire

    Hi All. Had the 63 for 2 months now and I am convinced that its on 7 cylinders. Drives ok and return 20mpg but when held at 1050 rpm in neutral the engine seems to have a rhythmic judder as though it's on 7 cylinders. Took it back last week but the service guy said if there are no lights...
