Hi All,
I have recently been getting the following problems:
Some of the fixes:
New Fuel Filter - Checking through the log book, I noticed the Fuel Filter hadn't been changed for 4 years and reading up online seemed to point to that. I got this replaced and the car seemed to be performing better BUT the engine almost shutting down is still happening.
New Battery - As the original battery wasn't keeping charge and was advised to get a new battery
Diagnostic Check - I have also taken the car to be diagnosed by Mercedes and no didn't find any issues other than some under voltage (attached report).
I have read through some of the other threads and some of the symptoms seem to be pointing towards the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
I would be grateful if someone could help me pinpoint the issue.
I have recently been getting the following problems:
- Whilst idle, my engine just shutdown at the traffic lights and restarting the car and the engine worked fine.
- In the past month the engine has cut out twice whilst driving at low speeds, restarting the engine worked fine.
- Whilst driving, around 30MPH the car seemed to almost shut down as all the warning lights came on, pressing down on the accelerator seem to prevent it from shutting down and the car was fine.
