I own a 96 C200, and I've been having problems with my idle. Sometimes it would jump up and down, etc. The whole wiring harness has been replaced, so there is no wiring harness issues. Finally, I sorted out the problem, and it leads me to the throttle body harness assembly. I opened up the...

Please could anyone help a newbie MB owner? I've just bought a 1996 manual c180 estate and it's started making a strange noise. At first I thought it was behind the dash, a whirring/buzzing noise which starts when you turn the ignition on. On further investigation it is louder under the bonnet...

I have a 2003 SLK200K (M111-958 engine). Can anyone please tell/show me where the throttle linkage is? Service "B" states that the linkage should be lubricated, but I can't see what or where! Thanks for any help.

Yesterday my throttle kept sticking so quite often when I disengaged the clutch the idle was at about 2k-3k RPM, Ive had this problem before it but it disapeared for a while now its back. Ive lubricated everything I can think of inside the car first using WD30 and then grease by taking the panel...

Hi, my w210 E36 AMG has developed a throttle body problem, stalls occasionally and rough running/idling. I've looked around and come across a Siemens VDO part on ECP in this link - Mercedes Benz C Class Throttle Bodies & Service Kits - Euro Car Parts UK?s No.1 Car Parts Retailer However...

Hi All. Had an interesting problem today, driving round a busy roundabout in Edinburgh my Throttle became unresponsive. Turned out the cable had disconnected from the engine. Managed to fix a repair to get me home with some washers I had in a tool box in the boot, but it's not a permanent...

Hello all, Another question! My W124 1994 has a sticky throttle. When you pull away, you have to give the pedal an gooood push as it is quiet stiff. Once you are going, it is fine. Reverse is even worse! You give it a decent push and waaaaaayhaaaaaaay, you're flying backwards too fast...

Morning all! I am planning to replace the air filters on my S320 (MY2000, W220) this weekend as the ones that are in there currently are cheapo non MB ones. During this job I was planning to give things a general clean especially the throttle body and butterfly valve etc. From memory this...

I've been told by a semi-reliable source that my throttle cable is starting to wear. I have felt the power of the car deteriorate over time and when i explained this to him, he told me the throttle cable was to blame. Its been extended for now, but he said its perished and should be...

I have never heard it but the missus mentioned a low vol drivetrain whine when coming off throttle (when moving) - it only lasts for a few seconds and is definately speed related. If pushed to guess I think It sounds like the box - anyone know if its a common SL issue and if its going to get...

Right i'm a bit confused but what i believe i'm looking for is some sort of throttle control module which is attached to the throttle body on a w124 320E. The symptoms of the car are that it surges of its own accord, so if for example you are braking too a stop the car will start to accelerate...

Got a slight problem with the throttle response on an W211 E320 Petrol basically sometimes if the car is in Drive and you push the accelerator to move off the car begins to rev but not move then all of a sudden will jolt or will rear wheels will spin slightly and then move off... Have been...

I'm a new member and would appreciate some help. I have bought a lovely W124 multivalve diesel and for the last 4 weeks it has been faultless. Here in southern Spain the night time temperatures are just beginning to get down to around 11 or 12 degrees C. When I cold start the car in the morning...

If I turn the ignition on, the throttle buzzes. It's always done it, but seems to be noisier now. Sounds like the stepper motor that actuates the throttle is flicking between two positions continually. Is this normal? Or is there something I can do to fix?

Hi,I have had an on going problem with the throttle body on a v230. at low revs it would go in to limp mode about once a month,In the past if I turned the key 4 times it would go back to normal.(so not really a problem)about 3 weeks ago I had the water pump replaced .At the same time the...

I seem to remember reading that the throttle (around94-96cars at least) had a problem with being 'heavy' at the beginning of it's stroke. This is my contemporary experience of the new car and current experience of an old one. Do C36 owners of this vintage share this opinion? Has the problem ever...

Hi all, any opinions on this one please? My 320CDI has an unusual issue where the engine hunts up and down a little when moving fairly slowly and on very light throttle settings. I first noticed a very slight sensation of the car pushing forwards and backing off, doing this several times over...
