My apologies if this has been discussed before or it’s not at the right column…admin can move it for me pls.
My 2010 GL450 CDI couple of months ago it started having an intermittent starting issue, in the morning it will start fine at first turn if the key and then during the day it will not start, when I jump start it, it will start right way even the engine turning will be fast you can tell the turn is also excited. Indie diagnose it and said it was battery. He did drop test on it and yes he said battery. I replaced the main battery and the auxiliary battery as they are all under the seat and same area. I replace the main battery with one from dealer and it was a Varta unit and the Aux was from a diy shop this one was a Yuasa unit, but same amps as the one that came out. After I replaced the batteries the car was starting fine all day everyday. After 2-3 weeks of car starting fine one day it started again same thing well not quite so it will start in the morning and during the day it will not start but it will crank but not firing up. If I put the battery jump pack on the battery, it will start fine and will go the rest of the day ok as normal. I have no fault light on dash at all no battery warning light or eml light at all.
When scanned the car came up with the following codes:
U010087 intelligence servo module (communications with the engine ecu has a malfunction - the message is missing
This code has always been there since i bought the car.
2043-002 check component B6/1 (camshaft hall sensor) signal faulty.
This code is new!!
What I am not understanding is: why is it when the car does not start i then put a jump pack on the car starts up right away?
If it was a fuel issue wouldn’t it be the same even if I put a booster on? This someone mentioned to me that could be the case but I l don’t know and doesn’t make sense
