<div class="bbWrapper">I have a 2010 S212 E350 CDI BlueTEC. My engine management light recently lit amber. Around the same time, the transmission started getting a bit clunky/jerky.<br /> <br /> I bought an OBDII reader to use with my phone. It reported the following:<br /> Car Scanner ELM OBD2<br /> DTC report<br /> Selected brand: Mercedes-Benz<br /> <br /> ============1==============<br /> P2454<br /> Raw code: 2454<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Confirmed<br /> OBDII: Diesel particulate filter (DPF) pressure sensor A - circuit low<br /> <br /> ============2==============<br /> P2453<br /> Raw code: 2453<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Pending<br /> OBDII: Diesel particulate filter (DPF) pressure sensor A - circuit malfunction<br /> <br /> ============3==============<br /> P11DA(00)<br /> Raw code: 11DA00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Test failed, Test failed (current drive cycle), Pending, Confirmed, Test failed since last DTC clear, Warning indicator requested<br /> <br /> ============4==============<br /> P1297(00)<br /> Raw code: 129700<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear, Test not completed during this operation cycle<br /> OBDII: Injector High Sides Shorted Together<br /> <br /> ============5==============<br /> P14D8(00)<br /> Raw code: 14D800<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> <br /> ============6==============<br /> P118A(00)<br /> Raw code: 118A00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Pending, Test failed since last DTC clear, Test not completed during this operation cycle<br /> <br /> ============7==============<br /> P11A7(00)<br /> Raw code: 11A700<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> <br /> ============8==============<br /> P11D9(00)<br /> Raw code: 11D900<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> <br /> ============9==============<br /> P11DA(00)<br /> Raw code: 11DA00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Test failed, Test failed (current drive cycle), Pending, Confirmed, Test failed since last DTC clear, Warning indicator requested<br /> <br /> ============10==============<br /> P131E(00)<br /> Raw code: 131E00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> <br /> ============11==============<br /> P118D(00)<br /> Raw code: 118D00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit<br /> Status: Pending, Test failed since last DTC clear, Test not completed during this operation cycle<br /> <br /> ============12==============<br /> P10BB(00)<br /> Raw code: 10BB00<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> <br /> ============13==============<br /> P1218(00)<br /> Raw code: 121800<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> OBDII: CID High<br /> <br /> ============14==============<br /> P1219(00)<br /> Raw code: 121900<br /> ECU: Engine control unit[Archive (inactive)]<br /> Status: Test failed since last DTC clear<br /> OBDII: CID Low<br /> <br /> A bit of Googling led me to believe that I needed to replace the manifold pressure sensor so I ordered this: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LF7Q64A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LF7Q64A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1</a><br /> <br /> Today I lifted the bonnet to attempt to fit it. On removing the plastic engine cover, I discovered that there appears to be an oil leak per the photos below. Is anyone able to advise me what the source of the leak is?<a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-06-1-jpeg.133836/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107443-0f3e739ec6ba56d7a6493941a7aff1d8.jpg?hash=Dz5znsa6Vt" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (1).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (1).jpeg" width="846" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-06-2-jpeg.133837/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107444-a15545175acc35b27bacc953e2d54adc.jpg?hash=oVVFF1rMNb" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (2).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (2).jpeg" width="845" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-06-3-jpeg.133838/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107445-4a10267b3c759fb36331342e85e83a66.jpg?hash=ShAmezx1n7" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (3).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (3).jpeg" width="845" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-06-4-jpeg.133839/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107446-3d3d6d618c76b65ee716f96315731a51.jpg?hash=PT1tYYx2tl" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (4).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (4).jpeg" width="846" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-06-5-jpeg.133840/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107447-f2d23440d6832b3715d9372fe7f55276.jpg?hash=8tI0QNaDKz" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (5).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.06 (5).jpeg" width="845" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-07-1-jpeg.133841/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107448-0697f25d74566ba8a9c9793cbc31b062.jpg?hash=BpfyXXRWa6" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.07 (1).jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.07 (1).jpeg" width="846" height="400" loading="lazy" /></a><a href="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/attachments/whatsapp-image-2022-11-12-at-14-25-07-jpeg.133842/" target="_blank"><img src="https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/data/attachments/107/107449-6d800721f5c440562504bd4d8c546d7f.jpg?hash=bYAHIfXEQF" class="bbImage " style="" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.07.jpeg" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-11-12 at 14.25.07.jpeg" width="400" height="846" loading="lazy" /></a></div>
