shut

Had the inlet port shut off motor replaced last November and it looks like it's gone again. The dealer told me to switch the engine off and restart it and this seems to gave cleared the problem. Unfortunately the car will be stuck on Southampton quayside for a couple of weeks as I'm on a cruise...

My 06 E320 CDI with 55,000 miles limped home yesterday with little accelleration and the engine management light was on the dash. The garage have advised me that the intake port shut off motor had gone. This is the second time this has happened to me and at £600 a go to repair is becoming...

Does any one know if all the '500' engines after a certain year had the cylinder shut off technology, where the engine uses only 4 of the cylinders when not on full load ? Or was this an optional extra ? Pretty sure the CL has it as it gives really good MPG on the motorway whilst cruising...
