Recently I’ve had problems with the inhibitor switch on my E320 Cdi or at least I think that’s what it is,sometimes the car won’t start unless I wiggle the gear-lever,sometimes when I stop I can’t get it back into park
Does it sound like the switch please
TIA
After replacing my rear discs,pads and parking brake shoes I’ve found that my brakes are now sticking on! I made sure everything was free including the shoe expanders,any ideas?
Ok so as the title says my car is terrible starting on these cold mornings sometimes up to 10 mins of cranking! I’ve replaced the glow plugs which made no difference so now my thoughts have turned to the relay but I’ve heard people say this engine starts without them?
I also noticed that when...
I wonder if it’s worth changing the relay? As I said the gp light no longer stays on after starting but still churns over for ages before it starts and even takes several turns of the key!
I was very careful taking the glow plugs out,I worked them back and forth the tiniest amount until I got them loose! The glow plugs light doesn’t stay on anymore after starting but it still doesn’t start any better! Will the poor cold starting be down to the leaking injector seals?
I think on closer inspection there is black gunge all around several of the injectors,I’m guessing it wasn’t just coincidence and it was doing it prior to replacing the glow plugs but I just didn’t hear it with the beige cover on and bonnet shut!
After replacing the glow plugs on my e320 the engine has developed a “chuffing sound” the only thing I can think of is that the plugs havnt seated correctly but they seemed to go in and tighten up fine,I can’t seem to think of anything else I could have done??
