- E-Class 320 CDi Avantgarde
Hi all!
this is a slight duplication of my introduction thread, but I have posted here for the technically gifted
basically just brought e-class 320 cdi Avantgarde ( facelift 06 model ) and experience a loss in power usually when accelerating and the car going into 'limp' mode - ie... no power, 1500 rpm max and max 60 mph (eventually)
before I go back to the car sales I decided to get it diagnosed ( for-warned is for-armed )
these are the results..
4 Errors -
Throttle position valve
Glow plug relay unit
Turbo Actuator
Exhaust Back Pressure Sensor
these were cleared with the Turbo Actuator and Exhaust Back pressure codes immediately
they have said they have a "specialist" who can repair the actuator without replacing the whole of the turbo
looking at 450 for the work
Does the above sound correct - can the actuator be changed without the turbo ?
do you think I should get these done ( hopefully by the place who sold me the car 12 days ago ) or will this turn into a money pit ?
Cheers
