Mercedes c220 cdi blue efficiency 2011
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction on here. I've got a mercedes c220 sport blue efficiency 2011. I've had the car for the past 6 years and the cars never caused me a problem up until now! The turbo failed a couple of weeks ago and I found the cheaper option would be to get the turbo rebuilt, which cost me £450 from a company called it's turbos. After the mechanic fitted the turbo I immediately had engine management light on and the car won't rev more than 2000 revs. After getting the codes checked it's showing 4 codes which I will attach. I've tried to get back intouch with the mechanic but not having any look! My car didn't have any lights on before the turbo was taken off and put back on so I'm thinking it must be something he's done.
Thank you hope some can help.

To me it looks as if he's not reconnected something.

I'm sure that more knowledgeable people than I shall respond.

Thank you I'm in Barnsley, South yorkshire. I'll be honest I've got no idea with cars. I'm just hoping it's a simple fix.

Midland Turbos in Nottingham.
I had a turbo rebuilt there from my T25 camper.
As i was there a MB Nottingham truck pulled up and dropped a load of turbos off and collected a load more - no doubt charging customers for a new turbo.

Annoying the mechanic is not responding. As above seems like he must have disconnected some wires to access the turbo. Not sure where the turbo is located on that model so could it make sense?

I would normally use my local mechanic but he wasn't interested in replacing the turbo so I had to go elsewhere. Apparently so I was told all turbos are reconditioned?
I think it's deffinatley something that's not been plugged back in but like I say I don't really know much about cars.
Turbo seems to be working atleast and it doesn't smoke so I suppose that's a plus!
Does anyone think it's worth replacing the map sensor?
Thank you

No do not replace the MAP sensor - if you want to throw money away post me the 50 quid.

Go to your normal mechanic and tell him whats happened and ask him to give the car a look over or find a merc indy near you and do the same.
