- 2000 SLK 230 Kompressor
Hi guys,
I am new to the forums and looking for some help.
Basically I have a 2000 SLK 230 Kompressor which is a great car which I love but a few weeks back it started causing me some issues, It started with the engine light coming on and staying on but the car suffered no missfire, rough running or power loss, I got it plugged into a diagnostics machine the next day and it threw up the codes P201D and P2031.
The mechanic reset it and it stayed off for about 2 weeks then sure enough it came back on so I then took it to my regular mechanic who found the same codes but said without just replacing parts it would be impossible to narrow it down so he reset the light too.
Fast forward 4 weeks and today it has come back on again, bar taking it to Mercedes themselves (which will cost an arm and a leg) has anyone any idea what causes these 2 codes to come up? A bit of googling dosent really help too much.
Sorry for the long first post and thanks in advance for any advice you may give.
