Question for Mercedes Independant Specialist :

"Are you using genuine MB Star/Xentry Diagnostics, a Chinese copy or a 3rd party diagnostic??"

If the answer is not the first of the 3 options, look elsewhere for someone that has that (and does not charge MB main dealer rates). Do not replace any more parts until you've found that outfit.
 
Unfortunately it does sound like a game of 'Parts Darts' so far.
As Chris says, an indie with STAR is what you need.
Hope you get it sorted 👍
 
I suppose it depends where in Devon you are, but I've got family in Teignmouth and they've used these people


Any good to you ?
