E220cdi accelaration prob.

[jazzman]

Hi All. E220 CDI (2000) 112 k (W210)

Having a problem when initially pulling away in 1st gear (auto), i put my foot on accelarator and there is a delayed action when taking up the drive, noticeably slow off the mark.

Have just had all 4 injectors replaced and problem has started since then.
Week before that had major B service done at stealers,only extra work was coolant change.

Had the maf off, looked clean as a whistle but cleaned anyway with isopropyl.
Put " one shot " injector cleaner thru system,did not seem to help.

Car runs sweet when on motorway,just this problem when at standstill pulling away.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Cheers!
Jazz.

It sounds like it could be underfuelling a bit or the EGR valve is sticking, or maybe the MAf is under reading.

Do a re-adaption of the automatic gearbox value's....Only possible with the stardiagnosis.

Thanks guys for input!

Found the problem,
ME!!!!
I tell my sons there is no point getting older if you dont get wiser.
At some point i must have leaned over and hit the w/s switch and moved it to w, been pulling away in 2nd ever since (1 week).

What a plonker!

Cheers.
Jazz.
