Fault code P008A c180 cgi 2010 w204

Hello people.

First post. Great site.

Just got myself a 2010 c180 with the 1.8t cgi engine. Great car.

Got a whining noise on cold startup for about 15secs. Rest of the day no noise.

Also there is no EML light but Ive done a DTC obd2 scan and it shows a P008A. Ive tried to clean it but wont clear. Plus a little smell of petrol(this just could be me as ive been driving diesels for a few years)

Any idea`s

Thanks

Try typing that code in google it should give answer, think its fuel pressure related.

Could explain petrol smell.

Thanks for the reply.

Google says " Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure - Too Low"

Stop guessing or relying on a generic ODBII reader to diagnose your problem. Get yourself off to a decent Indie and have a session on STAR.

Its booked in for sat morning at Mercedes. Just looking for info to pass on to dealer.

I doubt a dealer will take much notice of forum answers. Why dealer and not a much cheaper Indie?
