hi, i have Mercedes c180 w203 2002 petrol and having a check engine light issue.
i went to Mercedes dealer and he has identify the below faults.
1. CAM shaft sensor
2. Air MASS sensor
3. Purge Valve
4. CAM solenoid
my question is how on the earth it can be that many faulty sensors in my car in one day. they said they will charge me 1000£ approximately to fix all
those faults. i can not afford 1000£ for this car. too expensive so decided to do it myself.
Yesterday i replaced Air Mass sensor and CAM shaft sensor as it is just 10 minutes job. Both the parts are OEM quality. after that i just went to
local mechanic and he said he can not reset my check engine light.
so i went to different mechanic today better one but not the MB dealer and he cleared all the code forcefully by plugging OBD fault code reader. i am not
sure the name of the machine/device but as he is not MB dealer so it was not MB STAR machine.
after 5 minutes the check engine light came back again and when he plugged inn the machine it says CAM shaft position sensor which i replaced yesterday.
Any idea what can be the issue thanks in advance
