Merc C220cdi not Accelerating

[mhussain]

All,

51 plate 106,000 miles.

Happy New.. I hope you guys can help:

I have noticed this problem since late december, when it was very foggy on the roads in London.

I will put my foot down on the gas, and nothing will happen for 2-seconds and when speed would increase, When I am going up a slight hill, the same happens, I cannot increase my speed, it gets stuck at 2000rpm and then all of a sudden will accelerate.

The same issue, happens in town aswell.


Thanks

MOhammed

As per Jib, Air Flow Meter (MAF) requires replacing. You could try cleaning it first as per the how to guide in the DIY section.
