Hi Guys,
I'm a newbie here so hi all.
I have a quick question for the techies around. I have a '98 C240 Sport, 46K and had a few probs the other night on my way home.
I was coming down the A1 to the M25 and the engine started to feel like it was running on 3, rather than 6, cylinders.
I limped it into South Mimms services and called the RAC. At this point it sounded like a bag of bolds and although it sort of ticked over and revved it wasn't happy. I switched off and retired to KFC to wait for the tow truck convinced that the car was impersonating my old Scoobie and had popped the engine. Needless to say I was far from happy.
When the RAC man came the car started first time and sounded sweet as a nut. That was nearly a fortnight ago and the car has been fine since. Have any others out there had this problem? I have perused the threads and not really found anything quite the same. Any ideas chaps as at the moe I am not confident in the cars ability top get me home or stay with it on long journeys and that is why I chopped the Scooby for it?
Any advice would be very well received.
