My ML320 2007 W164 CDI om642 has a very rough idle and produces a lot of white smoke. Car takes around 4 seconds of turning before it starts.
There does not seem to be any coolant being used
The idle clears up if you rev it above 2.5k rpm (still smoky though)
Computer reads a misfire in cylinder 3, tried swapping that injector over, made no difference.
If I pull the plug from Injector 3, would this stop the smoke and maybe prove its that injector.
Does a previously used injector need coded.
Any help appreciated
I can see a couple posts with almost exact same issue, bit no one ever come back to say the fix
Thanks again
