Hi all, my wife has a 2009 C Class 220 CDI. Nice little motor, great on Diesel and low mileage (only 75k)

It has a small issue, when you start it up and drive it it will not kick down and accelerate, just sluggishly pulls away.

If you stop the engine and turn it back on straight away its fine and works a treat

Has anyone experienced this before or know what the issue is?

Many thanks

Ben

Sounds like it’s going into limp mode after detecting a fault . The car will probably have logged the faults .
A garage can read these .
 
Many thanks I will pop it into and see if they can use the fault reader

Cheers

Had that replaced by Mercedes for free as a recall :)
