Hi all
Seasons greetings first of all and I'm hoping someone can help
I've got a 2013 E220 CDI (non bluetec)
My car had the red battery icon a few weeks ago and the car eventually wouldn't start, MB Breakdown came out to jump start it and he said my battery and alternator has failed, on the way driving the car to the dealer I lost all power to everything and I couldn't even switch the engine off.
I had a alternater and battery change by Mercedes and since I've had the car back the engine management light is on.
I asked the service manager about it and he reckons due to the battery fault the engine hasn't been able to regenerate the DPF and it should clear up.
It's been almost a week now and no change yet with thy light.
The car starts fine and idles fine, infact drives ok on the whole apart from rev limited and slightly jerky gear change down.
Oh speaking of gears the shift paddles don't work now either, is that to do with the EML?
