Hi all, I have a facelift Dec 2004 220cdi Auto saloon. I am selling the car and had a test pilot looking yesterday.
He was driving back into my yard and the engine stopped, he managed to restart it and was parking up when it stopped again.
As soon as it stopped the engine tried to restart on its own accord. The EIS was a little stiff due to standing and I am wondering if he left it in the start position when he started the engine to go on his test drive.
My question is with an EIS as free turning as it should is it normal for a Mercedes automatic to attempt to restart on its own? john.
