throttle

Hi All, I've just been advised by my garage that my 93 reg 500SL requires a new Throttle Valve Actuator, part number 0001415225. Obviously at close to £1,100 I like to source a second hand part. I've been looking around the web and ebay but I'm struggling. Anyone have any contacts or know of...

Hi all My 2001 W208 CLK 230K has developed a high-pitched squeak when the engine is idle or revved up to around 1500rpm. I think it may be bodywork as the same squeak happens very slightly when I shut the driver's door! Has anyone experienced this before? Many thanks all! Pete

Moving off from stationary in the E55, and therefore throttling up from idle, there is a certain amount of dead movement before the power comes in with a rush (not a bang), which makes it tricky to set off smoothly and gently in first. Is this normal on this model, or do I have (say) a throttle...

Hello Anyone know where to purchase a throttle return spring for a 1996 C180 W202 Been quoted £45 from one internet company (Think they were having a laf:eek:) Many Thanks

Can anyone help me?

Hello all, My 1984 500SL has about 2 inches of play in the throttle pedal. Does anybody know if this is an easy adjustment/fix? Thanks:)

I've ordered a second hand throttle body inc fuel distributor for my W126 300SE. Is it going to be a fairly easy DIY job to fit or should I really be getting a garage to do it? Is there any fine adjusting that will need done?

Hi there, :) I have a 2004 C180K WDC203 with 100,000 miles. Of late I have experienced- 1. A heavy judder accompanied with an diesel like engine note for a few minutes when the engine the car is on D and R gear. 2. High idling revs. 3. Slow acceleration. 4. Excessive smoke when...

Hi all, I've returned to AMG ownership after some years (sorry, I know there's no excuse!) and have got a 2001 W210 E55 AMG. It was running as smoothly as it should at first, if a little down on power. However, after a couple of weeks it started becoming jerky on mid throttle openings...

Coming up to 23K miles in my 2011 C class (manual) I have always been impressed with the smooth torque at low revs from the turbo enhanced motor. Recently however, I have noticed a distinct lack of smoothness, to the point of jerkiness. Also noticeable on cruise control. Example, set...

Good morning! I picked up my car yesterday having had the breathers and cam cover gaskets replaced and all is now good there, but it's holding at around 2000 rpm then dropping and I can feel it straining at the leash at low speeds. It feels as if the throttle is held open slightly. Have these...

I have a low rev hesitation - from tickover to about 1000 revs that has appeared. Almost like it's missing. It happens when you first prod the throttle and will do it repeatedly. My dealer said they can't fit me in for a week and being as they don't have time said I should phone MB breakdown...

Hello All, I am turning to you all in a now desperate attempt to get my w124 E200 (M111 engine, 4 speed auto box) estate running properly after many failed attempts and foxed mechanics. While this may at first seem like a normal M111 idling problem, I can’t find anything else quite like it...

I am looking for a known-working 000 141 57 25 throttle body to try to locate a fault. It won't need to be fitted to the car, just plugged in & fault codes read The faults are: cruise u/s, fast idle when warm, multiple error codes Can anyone help? Many thanks Nick Froome

Just wondered if any UK member has done an 82mm throttle body upgrade on their ''55k''. Many thanks.

Hi Probably more suited to track day goers using 4 pot motors As per title, I have a set of Hayabusa 1300r K1 Keihin throttle bodies for sale, no longer required for my plans. ITB'S are in excellent condition The k1's are the easiest to space out to accommodate Mercedes 4 pot inlet...

Hello all. I have recently changed my spark plugs and inspected the wiring loom and HT leads and all seems well but car still seems to idle rough some days and some days it doesn't. Does anyone know how i will access the throttle body on my C124 to clean it? I will also be changing the fuel...

WAnted as above but am wondering if this would be same as a standard w210 Cheers in advance

Picking up a SLK 320 this weekend. It's a 2001 R170. When I drove it I thought the throttle was stiff/ heavy. Is this normal? If not does anyone know an easy fix? Thanks in advance!
