My 2010 S212 has an annoying, recurring problem! A while back, I had a new egr valve fitted - aftermarket, decent quality, and I've only done perhaps 1500 miles since. Around a couple of weeks after it was fitted, engine went into limp mode, but no eml showing. Limp mode gone after a restart. I spoke to the indy who fitted the egr - advised me to wait till the eml came on, then pop in and they'd plug the car in to look for a code. Eventually, after multiple limp mode spells, the eml came on. At the time, it wasn't convenient to visit the indy, but over the next couple of weeks I had eml on/no limp mode, no eml/limp mode, eml/limp mode etc etc. I called in on a mate yesterday, he has a decent code reader, it showed the code 14A600. Googling came up with the attached Xentry printout. I called at the indy today, same code showed up on his Xentry. I've booked it in to have the seal on the egr checked, there's only one O ring on it, but the printout mentions crushed/dislodged seal as a possible cause. The indy was puzzled by the printout reference to 'deformed egr line in the inner tube' though. Originally, the printout I downloaded had pics of the 4 possible faults, but they're not on the printout unfortunately. Anybody any idea what 'deformed egr line in the inner tube' might refer to?
