smartchoice: @Lomomike or Smartchoice, I quite agree with you guys. Had a scan done in KD and according to what the guy said was revealed by the scan,was sometin to do with the temperature coolant switch,which I changed(can't find the item in the vehicle again to post it). After this,the issue still persisted as I used the same quantity of fuel back home. Is any of you in Lagos so I can stop over for a check this weekend;after calling to confirm.you may pls send me a whatapp message so we can communicate. Tnx alot |

I'm thinking of wheather to upgrade my Honda or switch to MB. But after going through this highly informative thread I made of mind to go for MB but still contemplating between C320 and C250. I hope joining this family would help to make better decision smartchoice: |

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by auhanson(m): 10:34pm On Oct 13, 2014 |
If you are like me that prefers mid size compact sedan and a little of sport Benz’s but not suv’s, C250 is a compact sedan, silent whisper machine with a lot of carefully built considerations to cut across good efficiency and adequate power to balance these two factors without compromising neither power nor efficiency while cutting down cost of ownership just like any other 1800 cc engine displacement with multiple gearbox system.. Her 1.8 litre IV (1800 cc displacement) engine is turbo packed making her very robust and efficient with the 7 gear auto steptronic system bringing down the cost of maintenance, built on a strong chassis and suspension mechanism that has excellent handling & stability with great aura, comfort and satisfaction when owned. A c250 can accelerate 0-60mph(or 100km/h) in 6.7 sec with a top speed of 149 mph(240km/h), while a c320 does same in 6.7 sec too with a top speed of 155mph(250km/h) A c250 can generate 204 horsepower at 5500RPM and 310 Nm that produces 229bft torgue while c 320 dose 224 bhp at 3800 RPM and 510 Nm that yield 376 bft torgue. And a heavier chasis. A c250 has economy of 32/55 mpg in city/hw, averaging 55mpg using British standard measurement , while c320 has economy of 27/46mpg in cty/hw, averaging 37mpg British standard measurement C250 commence production in 2009 till date while c320 discontinued in 2009 Also, the c320 is a compact sedan with 6 cylinder naturally aspirated engine built for durability and performance with 12 plugs for the 6 cylinder head for performances in a 300cc engine displacement that has 4matic variances in abundance, a factor making it a little expensive to own. From the aboved analysis, you can see that the c250 is a better machine, It is now left for you to weigh your balances to inform to inform your decisions, but I personally prefer the c250 for everyday use with rather the c350 or c63 amg for occasional drives just for the robust nature. Just like i would prefer the c230 kompressor that balances power and efficiency to the c220, c280. For either models, don’t mess with the electrical systems if you want a problem free ride, always leave things at factory settings, replace what is bad but avoid bypassing of components.. 1 Like

Hi there, A friend's ml350 2006 model keeps soaking all 3 plugs from right side of the engine;when you stand facing the suv. a scan was done and it indicated faulty ECM;according to the technician. Pls do note that the soak plugs are oil soak. Thus the search to get an ECM for the suv with vin 4JGBB86E96A039267. The part number of the defective one is A2721536979. Have any one bought ECM or dealt with this site: http://www.mercedesecm.com/ml350-ecm.html. Tnx on anticipation of a favorable response soonest |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Nobody: 10:18am On Oct 18, 2014 |
Oil soaking? How? Does the exhaust smoke too? |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by TSAT: 10:31am On Oct 18, 2014 |
smartchoice: Tick white like smoke at least that was what I saw when I went to the mechanic shop to see it. If you change the plugs,within a couple of minutes,its all soaked again |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Nobody: 9:30pm On Oct 18, 2014 |
TSAT: Rings |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by TSAT: 9:55pm On Oct 18, 2014 |
smartchoice: The technician tried tapping current;using wire to tap current from the other 3 coils to the left if the engine onto the right side which is soaking plugs;but the vehicle was running with difficulty.on gradual acceleration on the trottle pedal,the engine will work fine exhuming the oil smoke from the exhaust tail. If going by your opinion the the rings is bad, 1) can I get original rings to replace with? And where?? 2) how come the soaked plugs is ONLY from one side of the engine? 3) how come the scanner is indicating faulty ECM ?? |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by lezz(m): 10:14pm On Oct 18, 2014 |
TSAT:hello there. I am new here but my e200 kompressor once had plug socking issues and it was an electrical thing. it was one of the plug wires. A bad coil can also cause it too. |

lezz: Oil soaking? Not fuel? |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by lezz(m): 1:28pm On Oct 20, 2014 |
smartchoice:yes, oil soaking. In the M111 and M112 etc, once those plugs aren't firing well, they tend to soak the plug with engine oil. My experience was with one of the plug coils and plug wire was bad and the plugs get soaked up with half a day. I thought it was a rings thing until, the plug wire was changed. And it was emitting white smoke from the exhaust too. 1 Like |
