    Hello, The Vaneo again. 1.7CDI, Manual, Diesel, 2002, A-Class, 150K+ miles. I had this problem last summer, then it went away and just returned during the nice weather. Car starts fine generally and no issue. Plenty revs and pull etc. When I get about 5 miles up the road, presumably...

    Mk I Focus 1.6 petrol bogs down at low rpm

    A friend's Mk I Focus 1.6 bogs down at low rpm. It's reluctant to pull away cleanly in 1st unless you have at least 1200 rpm up and you have to feather the throttle to make it pull away smoothly I've Googled the fault but come up with nothing. Have any garagistes who maintain other marques...

    RPM Slow to come down

    Just noticed that my car rpm from 4000 rpm limiter is slow to come back to idle. Is that the norm or is there possibly something sticking that can be fixed. Please note the car sat for 4.5 years not moving:eek: Idle is now spot on. W124 E200 Coupe Ta Sinky:thumb:

    Flat spot at 3.5k rpm

    Hi all, As I'm doing less miles in the old girl recently I have allowed myself the pleasure of occasionally going mad and revving up to over 4k rpm once in a while without crying at petrol stations. I've noticed a flat spot at about 3k -3.5k rpm before it picks up again at 4k+ I seem to...

    W203 (C220 CDi) hesitates on motorway between 2-2.5k rpm

    Hello All Over the last four months my W203 has become more erratic on A roads/motorways. If you set the cruise at anything between 2-2.5k rpm it will hesitate (drop about 200rm) every so often, then carry on as if nothing has happened ! It's getting worse even my wife asked me 'what's wrong...

    What's your RPM cruising at top gear at 70mph?

    Mine is 2,500 - which I believe is normal for this engine/gearbox but I still think is slightly high - probably the result of having a four-cylinder 180K rather than a torquey V6 or a diesel.

    W203 shifting at 2000 rpm and then dropping down to roughly 800 - 1000rmp

    Is this normal in any gear revs hit 2000rpm before gear shifts upwards. Even when starting the car. Once the new gear has been reached revs suddenly drop. When putting foot down around 60 mph rpm hit near redline before upshift and then shift much quicker after. This normal?

    Please post your 2nd gear 2000-6000rpm times

    This morning I did a few 2nd gear 2000-6000rpm runs. I repeated 4 or 5 times and found the results very repeatable, within 0.1s. This test is very easy and keeps you in the legal speed limit too. For comparison I read that a Mk1 MX5 1600cc can do 6.1s. I'm curious to know how other makes and...

Warming up the engine the other day I realised the engine RPM would not rev. above 4000 rpm. as a smooth driver (being old & economical) I've not been above those revs on the road. I realise this car has so many electrical protection...

    W212 idle rpm

    Normally it will idle at 500-600. Out of the blue will idle at 800-900. I understand it's something to do with renewing the DPF. However with the cold weather it's idling at 800-900 most of the time, even with a nice warm engine. Seems a great waste of fuel and notvery green. Is there a good...

    W124 Idles between 1500-2000rpm

    Hey Guys & Girls, Got a bit of an issue with the 124. When i start it up, it constantly idles around the 1500-2000rpm. It started doing it very randomly, it use to idle between 700-1000rpm, which is what i thought was normal. However all of a sudden it just crept up to 1500-2000rpm. The idle...

    C208 CLK320 not delivering all power above 5k rpm on full throttle

    Hi knowledgeable folks, First noticed this trait on my CLK a couple of years ago and it hasn’t really bothered me as I was living in London and rarely used much of my car’s power. On accelerating at full throttle it zooms up to 5000rpm but then it feels like all the torque/power disappears...

    ML 270 engine surge at 70 mph - rev counter flicks between 2500 -2300 rpm

    Hi, Can anyone assist with the problem i'm experiencing with my new car? This is the 1st Merc i've ever owned and has took the shine off it. When you are driving on a Motorway, as the speed hits 70 mph at 2500 rpm, you notice what can only be described as a surging in the engine, as though...
