Good afternoon. I am having some troubles on my clk 320 cdi. I suspect i am experiencing oil cooler seals leaking, plus my speedtronic/tempomat has stopped working.
I have noted that i have small oil leaks under the motor and i think it should be the oil cooler, since looking under the oil seems to come from the known drips.
Car has 340.000 km and i already experienced a 7G fault due to a mechanic that washed the gearbox instead of only changing the oil..
After looking for the oil level and refilling what had obviously come out, a strange thing happened...i had an oil spray from the filler cap.
The motor runs good and strong, no esitation on acceleration or strange knacking noises...i have never cleaned the egr or changed the turbo red seals, could it be that the pvc has to be changed ?
I am sure i havent overfilled the motor with oil, and honestly i hope is some simple thing like oil cap that needs changing (Ex MB mechanic told me it happened on some cars)
The speedtronic is instead dead... no light open on the stalk for the limiter nor input or nothing.
Already changed with another stick and no solution. When plugged in with xentry diagnostic for checking the signals you move the cruise stalk but it senses no signal, like there is nothing connected
Checked under door still for the can bus connections but all looks ok, i only have found a disconnected cable that seems to go nowhere...yellow with black stripe, not present on any diagram but it looks like brand new never plugged.
What could i look into for this ??
i noticed two small black spots in the dash, could this be some moisture in the dashboard cluster that prevents normal functions ? MB dealer said it was the stalk, i bought one and changed it with no results...
Give me your thoughts
