Seized Manifold

[ianb59]

I have 2002 E320 Auto Estate 150,000 miles. lost kickdown, runs smoothly and there is no problem when using tiptronic gear changing, so took to MB garage and have been advised I need new Inlet Port motor and manifold plus Hot Film Mass Sensor.

Needless to say these items are very expensive and I am asking for advice to see how or where I can go to reduce cost

Thanks in advance

Yes,from MB dealer that little lot will cost big time.I would look for an MB independent specialist,you should find them significantly cheaper.

Read this Inlet port shut off motor delete (CDI2) - Mercedes-Benz Owners' Forums it may or may not help

Check the fuses near the ECU, one of them stops the motor from working (4th from the left, 7.5A)

I'm assuming your vehicle is a diesel
