Hi,
Since aquiring the car 2 years ago it has always had a cold start problem. I have managed to live with it as my motorcycle is my main form of transport.
However, as it is worse in winter I decided to do some investigation. I removed the OVP relay which I believe is the source of many problems (Esp. as my ABS light is also on - it came on about six months ago). I took the OVP relay to Merc who said a new one is £70. I thought that was a bit sharp considering it might not be the problem, so took it home and was going to try to source one from elsewhere.
In the mean time, might motorcycle wouldn't start this morning so I hopped in the 190 forgetting that I had removed the OVP relay. It started immediately! It has never done that. I then drove it to work. Have I possibly caused and damage and does this prove it was the OVP relay at fault?
