Hello all,
I have a 2013 c250 with 45000 miles. There is an unusual problem with an engine light. Step by step below
1. Air leak engine light
2. Brought to MB garage and there was a slit in the turbo pipe, fixed
3. 1 hour after the light came back
4. Back to MB and carried out further testing, mechanically perfect, software was updated
5. 1 hour later the light is back on
6. Brought for second opinion and there were 2 fault codes raised P227906 (air leak - algorithm) and P040200 (flow in egr cylinder bank 1 is too high) . This mechanic had the car for 7 days and on the 7th day got an egr fault, as well as air leak. He advised what MB garage done should have fixed the problem. Egr fault never raised before
sometimes there is an odd smell of exhaust fumes but it's very rare.
Did anyone else have an issue like this? Possible cause and fix?
Would EGR replacement fix it as maybe the exhaust gas pressure is forcing a back pressure on the intake fooling the system into a leak? Thanks
