I have a US version 2005 W211 E320 CDI and had the known problem with the EGR valve causing the car to go in limp mode. Took the car in under warranty to the dealer and they replaced the EGR and flashed and SCN coded the ECU with the current software per DTB article, however since I got the car back it does not seem to have quite the power it did. I initially thought they reset the ECU adaptation and it would recover over time, but that has not happened yet. Before at 40MPH the turbo would come in really hard, but now it seems to come in much softer and doesn't have quite the power it did.
Did the mechanics incorrectly install something or is this a characterisitic of the newer ECU software?
To someone that had not driven the car before it is probably not noticable, but to me it is very noticeable. Also, I haven't had the car quite one year, so could it be the winter fuel difference causing it to feel different?
Thanks
