- ML430 - 2000
All, New to the forum but thought I would ask for help.
After visitng 3 seperate dealers no-one has an answer to this so I am hoping someone here can help.
My ML430 (2000) drives really well, then if I do 80 miles ish at a speed between 85 - 95 on motorways, all of a sudden the car starts spluttering as though there is no fuel getting to the engine, it then does this for about 20 miles on and off and then I have to stop. Get back in the car after 30 mins and then 80 miles ish later it starts to do it again.
If I travel at 85 or less it does not happen?
The 1st time it happenend I had the aircon on all the way so thought it was that, but since then it has happenend without the aircon on? I do 50000 miles per year in it and it is starting to get a bit annoying now.
Any ideas? anyone else had / have the same issue? Many thanks in advance for you assistance.
