  1. Have you attempted to configure it using the Mercedes Me application?
  2. Some Diesel Ingenium vehicles have reached 100,000 miles without troubles, while others have barely achieved 15,000 miles. Later versions from 2022 onwards may perform better. It is possible that their reliability is inferior to other manufacturers.
  3. Assess the condition of the 12V battery using a load test. It may appear satisfactory with a multimeter, but it may experience power loss when a load is applied.
  4. On my 204, it is all BF&BI! Persist in exerting effort; it may not be easy, however it is effective!
  5. Upon reflection, if you examine the rear of the turbo to the left, the brass-colored exit pipe connected to it has a clamp that attaches it to the exhaust; perhaps this is loose?
  6. That is astonishing! If it can be removed, the source should be readily apparent. If the engine is cold and you place your palm near the turbo by the exhaust, you may perceive the airflow. Exercise caution, as it will rapidly get hot.
  7. Clean the area, which may reveal the source of the new discoloration. When you refer to heat shields as being black, are you indicating the vertical silver shields located at the rear of the engine compartment? Is it dry black soil or oily black soil?
  8. Thank you for your response. I do not believe it is a fuel leak, since there is no odor of gasoline in the vehicle from the pump, which I would expect given its location under the seat. Although it is sealed by a base plate under the seat, I shall re-enter and examine it. There is unequivocally no leaking from the fuel injectors, as I have inspected for leaks post-drive and detected neither the odor of petrol nor any indications of leakage. The gasoline seems to deplete mostly in lower gears when driving in urban areas; however, while traveling on the A road at around 60-70 mph and at 2500-3000 RPM, the fuel gauge appears accurate. Thank you once again for your response; I will reposition the rear seat and reassess the pump.
  9. Greetings, everyone. I am experiencing a problem with my E46 (2001). Recently, the engine warning light illuminated. I purchased a code reader and received this code. P0313 Insufficient petrol in the tank. 2. Defective spark plugs and ignition wires 3. Defective injectors 4. Vacuum Leaks 5. Defective Fuel Sender Unit 6. Fuel Sender Unit harness is either open or shorted. 7. Inadequate electrical connection in the fuel sender unit. Frustrated by being overcharged by garages, I decided to do the job myself; while I am not a mechanic, I possess the necessary skills. I began troubleshooting. I replaced the fuel pump. Engine warning light persisted. Replaced the air intake pipe. Engine warning light remained on. Replaced the spark plugs. Engine warning light remained on. Replaced the fuel injectors. Engine warning light remained on. Replaced the Disa valve. At last, there is no engine warning light; but, I am now using double the amount of gasoline, particularly in the lower ratios. I reinstalled the original Disa valve, nevertheless excessive fuel consumption persists. I now comprehend the code. P0102 1. Malfunctioning mass air flow sensor 1. Air intake leaks 2. Contaminated mass air flow sensor 3. Contaminated bulk air filter The mass air flow sensor harness is either open or short-circuited. 5. Inadequate electrical connection in the mass air flow sensor circuit I replaced the whole MAF, however it continues to use excessive gasoline. I am perplexed; I have reviewed all my work and verified everything, only substituting the old with the new, and everything seems OK. Does anybody have any suggestions, please? Unless there is an electrical defect, which seems unlikely as fuel consumption was satisfactory prior to the replacement of any components. I would be grateful for any assistance.
  10. The manual release cable is used for instances where the charging cord becomes lodged. It seems that the standard door lock solenoid has malfunctioned. Not unusual. Dealer warranty assignment. I consistently lubricate my with silicone spray. Inserting and extracting it to ensure the removal of debris.
  11. Thank you everyone for the kind reception. Thus far, everything is ok. 🙂
