Starting from fuel pump, trace up to fuel injectors, plugs, coils, intake system too
Thanks boss. Appreciate. Will get on it tomorrow and revert to the house.

Thanks all

Fox the P0170 by checking for breakage in intake or MAF and throttle body area. Fix the P030x codes by running tests on plugs, nozzles and coils. Hope your engine has good compression sha.

Your P0340 should go since your car is a variable valve timed car.
P0170 and P0340 has gone on. Only misfires codes remaining. The car is hard starting occasionally, the misfires too are occasional and engine doesn't rev when throttle is depressed. If I switch off and on, it will respond. Fuel economy is bad by the way.

Car TalkRe: Mercedes Benz Thread by DreCharles(m): 8:02am On Jun 24, 2019
Eddee:
Let's start with the easy one first, where have you been getting fuel lately? I hope you didn't throw away that MAF? As for the nozzles, did you buy a complete set (direct toks - shouldn't be more than 4k), I still suspect the spark plugs and coils (a multimeter will confirm this).

Stop throwing parts at it, if you dey Lagos - carry that motor track Gazzuzz (no worry, offline him dey work Mercedes, you know see that Range Rover wer him wan sell, who you think say bin dey maintain am?)

I hope these are not the spark plugs you put in that Merc?
Those are the ones. Lol

Unfortunately, not in Lagos. And yes I got complete set of nozzles and I didn't throw away the old maf and I fuel at bovas and forte fuel stations only. Although want to order for platinum spark plugs soon but since all fingers are pointing to fuel filter, I want to maybe check that out before replacing plugs

Hard start fuel pump/filter... It can also cause misfire due to fuel starvation
Okay, I'll check and replace. Thank you.

You are welcome I just read that you've replaced nozzles and maf, I've modified my comment; focus your attention on the fuel pump and filter now.
Okay bro. I will. Thank you

A lot of things can cause your symptoms. Post the DTC you got after scanning, a bad TPS maybe
DreCharles:

Original codes
P0170..Fuel trim bank 1
P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304....Cylinder1 to 4 misfire
P0340... Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor

Then I cleaned throttle body, change nozzle, maf, air filter

Drove fine but started getting misfires and non rev occasionally. Rescanned and got just the cylinder misfires codes

Oga Eddee, what do you think please?
Car TalkRe: Mercedes Benz Thread by DreCharles(m): 7:37am On Jun 24, 2019

If multiple cylinders are misfiring check fuel pump,fuel filter,nozzles,maf.
Also check if the coils are getting electric current..
Good luck.
Thanks.
Fuel filter has been fingered as the culprit but I'll have the fuel pump checked too as a precaution. Nozzles and maf has been changed last week when the issue just occurred.

Eddee:
Did you replace with original Bosch or Denso spark plugs? I hope you didn't use those fake NGK. Please scan that vehicle ASAP
Vehicle has been scanned. Will replace with original spark plugs asap. What I want to know is will faulty fuel filter cause it not to rev when throttle is depressed. Note that, if I switch off and start again, throttle will respond

So he left driver there huh

No, he should have asked the driver to park the car inside the helicopter and carried it along

Of course, he would leave the driver there.

You don't expect them to leave the car there and both go away

Is it the same cylinder(s) that was misfiring b4 u did the cleaning that still misfires after the cleaning and plugs change?
Same cylinders, yes

I suggest u get another maf and test it...if that doesn't work u will have to change the ECM(brainbox).
Oh really, how much does a new brain box cost and will I be able to get one that will match the car?

Actually the update is, I did a thorough cleaning of the throttle body, replaced spark plugs, changed nozzles and replaced the maf, cleaned the tps with fuel. I went back for scanning and only got cylinder misfires error code, yes the car was still misfiring occasionally, and throttle is still not revving when depressed.


Car hard starts in the morning and rpm will fluctuate for some seconds before normalizing. My mechanic says it's a fuel filter issue. Please advice.

Hello guys. I eventually scanned the car and got these codes.

P0170..Fuel trim bank 1
P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304....Cylinder1 to 4 misfire
P0340... Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor

I want to believe p0170 is responsible for the cylinder misfires but I welcome any suggestions.
As for the p0170, Google search revealed air filter, air filter housing, MAF sensor as likely causes. I've changed the maf and air filter. The air filter however looks good.

Any suggestions pls?

Also how do I tackle the p0340 error. What do I look out for?
Thanks in anticipation.



Just removed plugs. All dead and buried. Lol. Please who can get me platinum spark plugs suitable for 2003 w203 c200. Location is Abeokuta, Ogun state.
