2003 220cdi Auto no power

[mick64]

Could anyone please assist before I face the possibility of another astrnomical bill.approx one year ago my 3 year old just outside warranty developed a lack of power fault and would not exceed 3000 rpm .£1,200 (OUCH)a new front exhaust and new injector later I had 12 months of reasonably happy motoring .Today something similiar occurs another total lack of power and 45 mph impossible .Is it me or are modern mercs so badly built .....??It has been in for warranty issues 3 times 4 tyres replaced,service distances seem to be getting smaller and costly (changes from A to B in last 1k).This car has yet to do 40k....any guidance prior to talking to a dealership will be greatly recieved as currently I have no faith in them or their product.

Thanx in advance

As its a cheap fix on a diesel I would try an Air mass. I think they are about £40.

Its the first port of call on lack of power faults on diesels. Also its worth checking your air filter too for blockages.

Hope this helps

do MAS are so cheap on diesel? So they are quite different respect MAS for petrols.

I well remember I paid about 380Euro on my old 202 kompressor.

They are for the MB CDi range. Others are the same as petrol prices.
