Hi all. I have a 59 plate C200CDI that suddenly loses power while cruising at Motorway speeds. This lasts a few seconds, then all is ok again for 5-10 minutes then it will happen again, but not EVERY trip. Bizarre.
There are no indications on the dash or service display to say anything is wrong. Its a bit un-nerving when you're overtaking wagons let me tell you!
Only thing I had recently was a bit of juddering on a start up after leaving it for 3 hours. Engine management light came on, but after a couple of revs it ran ok.
The light stayed on for the 30 minute journey following this. I turned it off, took the key out, left it for 5 minutes then started it. The light went out. Ever since I've had the above problem.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Cheers.
