Hi guys , I have had another thread going here http://forums.mercedesclub.org.uk/showthread.php?t=109972 about gearbox/Accleration issues - Think i have got to the bottom of this with the help and the STAR diag.
Just a quick one, a faulty MAF should come up on the STAR check yes?
I say this as i have run my car at idle and disconnected the MAF and it made no difference to the running of the car and NO DASH CEL light lit up.
I would think it would change the running by disconnecting it?
I also have bad start up issues , the car tends to fire up and then conk out on the first go, then re-start and it idles all over the shop until I rev it up for a bit and it sorts its self out.
Going to do a plug change at the weekend and re-clean the MAF/throttle body - any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Murph
