Hello
a friend of mine drive an 2001 Mercedez E220 Disiel
roblem
When the car starts the car runs uneven, as if one cylinder wasn't working, although after few seconds it goes away
The second problem is a bit worse, even the dealer isn't helpfull, all they do replace parts but nothing improves, the car dies at random times, sometimes after few hours of driving, sometimes right away, it feels like the car loses turbo, it has no acceleration, drives like a mule
anyone know what could be the possible problem, please let us know
oh and just a general question, E220 engine has a timing chain vs a timing belt to my understanding. is this correct?
thanks in advance
