- 2010 E350 CDI BlueEfficiency Sport Coupe Auto 227bhp
Hi all,
I’m not sure if what I’m experiencing is common. My car is 2010 E350 CDI Coupe 227bhp. In the morning, if the car hasn’t been running for more than 12 hours, the starter motor will turn the engine over a few times before it catches on what seems like a few cylinders. It will then run off cylinder with a small amount of throttle for about 10 secs before all cylinders have caught at which point it settles down. It will then start normally the rest of the day. Outside temperature doesn’t effect this. I had it checked out a while back and my mechanic says the glow plugs are fine and no errors popping up on his computer. I returned it to the garage that sold me the car, I thought it was fixed back in the summer but the problem has reappeared. The garage changed the injectors but I have an inclination that it’s not injectors as the car runs beautifully after the initial start up. It is as though air is leaking into the fuel line while standing. Does anyone have experience of this?
