    Please help!!! 2.3 cdi brake issue

    I dont think it matters what make car or model you have, the abs is full of 'valves' i believe, so once air is in it you have to activate all the valves to release the air while bleeding the system, the only reason i came across this was i changed pads in a car i had and didnt clamp off the...

    Please help!!! 2.3 cdi brake issue

    when you changed abs unit, did you bleed abs unit with a diagnostic tool that does abs bleeding if not, this could have been original problem(air /dirt pushed back into abs by pad changes done badly)I am pretty sure the only way to bleed the system and include bleeding abs(which if newly fitted...

    ML 270 CDI High Pressure Fuel Pump Connections

    one other thing you could do as you had no problem before you took tank off is use the vacuum pump(assume it has a gauage/dial on it) to test your flow and return pipes individually for air leaks ,its extremely hard to 'see' a split/damaged pipe, its very easy to see a vacuum dial dropping...

    on the left by air intake on my ml was a vacuum actuator with a filter hanging off the bottom which gave an annoying buzz when engine off and looking under bonnet, took a while to identify it as source, didn't drain battery though,

    C270 w203 not starting in freezing cold help!

    when you say you did leak off test they were all ''in parameters'',, what were the actual results in ml's over what period of time and what were your parameters ? Only asking as sounds like typical sign of worn injectors when cold weather causes problem starting and no problem starting when...

    Top leak on manifold 270 cdi

    I didn't remove the thermostat but did disconnect all pipes in that area, also remove egr pipe/manifold but not the last section that's banana shape and attaches to the head, was a very tight giggle to get it out and in again , but doable

    Top leak on manifold 270 cdi

    agree most likely o ring, but as the the sealed flaps are sealed from the bottom of the manifold and the leak is at the top have my doubts its the delete part that's leaking

    Top leak on manifold 270 cdi

    Put a couple of pics of manifold up when you take it off , be interesting to see what the delete and sealing rubbers look like, you might have noticed that my on my previous two pic attachments, the manifold in the 1st had been previously deleted by a 'mechanic' using nuts bolts and...

    Top leak on manifold 270 cdi

    Did mine a short time ago, don't think there was any difference in the bolt lengths and there are no gaskets, just rubber type inserts that seal the inlet ports that I reused with no problem, would be surprised It would be showing from the top and not the bottom , you sure this couldn't be...

    W203 220cdi won’t rev over 3000rpm

    I have mb11 and had a similar fault which did not show on mb11 diagnostic, was a vacuum pipe which had detached from egr so the above comments are (in my opinion) not really helpful to posters or potential posters looking for help and might be put off by negative comments, people come on here...

    ML 270 CDI High Pressure Fuel Pump Connections

    one thing that's definitely going to get it going is eaystart, use brake cleaner(supposedly less harsh on engine) if your worried about easystart, once it gets the engine firing on it, it will resolve any air or low fuel rail pressure issues(crack open the first injector fuel injector nut to...
