ML270 CDI Loss of power

[Raphael Sinyoro]

My ML270 CDI just started to lack power producing black smoke whilst I was driving on the highway and it cant go past 2000ravs. What could be the cause please help

Sounds like limp home mode first thing to do is get it plugged into a star diagnostic computer to see if there are any fault codes stored

If I had to guess I would say your airflow meter....if so buy a genuine MB item, they are cheaper than you think. But to be double sure get it onto a STAR machine to get the codes read.
