Good morning everyone, @ikenna please where can I get a good stepper motor for my first wife(406 ew10)? She has been embracing me with brake and quench. I really need to give her what she wants before she ruins me. My mechanic tried using cabretor cleaner but we found out that it has crake inside and the parts sellers said I cannot get a good one without buying it with nozzles. but my nozzles are still in very good condition. I just need where I can get only the original stepper motor. I base in abuja.

Secondly, my speed meter on the instrument cluster is not working.just only the speed meter every other thing works ok. Is it that the speed sensor is not good or its corroded? Please how can I resolve this issues?

Thanks.

Car Talk / Re: Peugeot: Cars With Attitude! by klint16: 8:39pm On May 09, 2015
Hello house,I have some few questions about 406 ew10 and its urgent. How much is total Quartz 7000? Also I hear some noise like sisisisi!!! when the engine is on and the mechanic said its release bearing how true is dat? And if its true and I change it, is it advisable to still use same gear box oil or I should change it? And what's the recommended gear box oil for 406 stick shift. What is the factory recommended battery 75ahr or 62ahr. can someone help check this vin? Vf38brfn291063355 thanks. Please Ikenna your assistance is needed.

Hello klint,

You were wrongly informed. There is no difference please. However, there is what you might consider a difference in emission system, which is not peculiar to 406 produced by PAN.

Some foreign produced 406 phase II have downstream sensors while some don't. You can tell by their VIN. The ones RFR on their VINs mostly don't have that sensor, while those with RFN and others do have. This make the engine wiring harness and ECU different, even if they run on the same engine.

Now, for 406 phase II produced by PAN, which were all fully multiplexing, just like some foreign ones, all of them do not have downstream sensors, which make the engine ECU different. But then, their VINs mostly have RFN.

Every other thing is the same.

As for the ECU prices. You were wrongly informed as well. Brand new ECU for EW10 engine (which likely are designed to run engine without downstream sensors) cost about 80-100k, depending on where you buying from. But a used one cost much less than that, such as the 35k you mentioned.

Now because we have more foreign produced or imported 406 in Nigeria than the locally produced one by PAN, you will mostly find used ECUs and engine wiring harness of foreign 406 than PAN ones.

Now, if you care and handle a 406 well, you have nothing to worry about with prices of ECUs of PAN or foreign, because they were not made to fail unless you damage them by yourself. They last the lifespan of 406. People have covered about a million km mileages with their 406, with the same original engines, transmissions, Engine ECUs, etc. So, have no fear.

Ikenna

Thanks.

Hello everyone, please what is the different between Nigerian assembly (PAN)406 with ew10 engine and imported to Nigeria. I had that the brain box of PAN 406 is more expensive than the imported.PAN goes for N80,000 while imported goes for N35,000. Also PAN has more elecrical problem than the imported.please ikenna what is your own take on these?

Hello everyone, merry Xmas in advance. Please I ve this problem with my w203. Wenever I apply break at 100-120km/hr speed I notice this strong vibration on the steering wheel. And I ve changed the break disc but still persist. Some dealers and mechanic have said so many thing like its the break pad, lower arms calippers and some ll say it's not. Infact, instead of helping, they ended up confusing me. Please anyone with a soln to the culprit? I base in abuja and I intend going to mechanic village in Abuja again tomorow agianst my Xmas traveling. Please treat as urgent cos I need to travel with the car. Thanks.

Hello, I install this inverter around July 2014 and the first one got burnt inside due to high voltage and drained the batteries so much so I now got another inverter and recharged the batteries and did same installation. But right now the ppl are calling me back that they don't get longer backup again and when I checked the system it seems to be ok. What might be the problem.

edubest: Guys pls my w203 check engine light, has been on for a month now and another malfunction display (Brake assist, visit workshop BAS).pls am still new to benz, and where can I fix it in Benin, what is the best engine oil for the Benz, can any synthetic oil be OK.pls reply as soon as possible. 08033804837

Does it show u spanner on the instrument cluster? Wen last did u change ur oil? I think it needs servicing. Check ur oil level to n if it has been long u change oil then, u need to change oil. Mine shows me about 10,000km, That is I ve to service her after 10000km. Then for the brake assist, check the level of ur brake pad it might be low or check the sensor wire that is connecting to the calliper if it is out. U can also read the meaning of those malfunctions from the instrument cluster with the control buttons on the steering wheel. I think dis is the reason ur seeing all of that cos I ve same issue. someone changed my clipper with one that has no sensor so I couldn't connect the sensor wire and those things has been showing since then. Ask more people to be such. That's my own suggestion.

auhanson:

If you haven't already solved this, i dont think you heard the noise from your engine , it may have come from your exhaust pipe, if so , then you have a damage exhaust pipe(one of the port composition is damaged on the inside,precisely the catalytic converters), clue from the black smoke, and maybe a rattling noise when you fire to high rpm, which is a sign of damage exhaust system...Sometimes some things need to be precisely observe physically than literally.. Many times i have taught of one thing from the narration of the symptom but only to discover a different thing on close examination.

Tnx bro. I also went to visit anoda mechanic and he observed it and said its gasket issue. He said if gasket didnt create gap btw the top and the something i cant rember that i ll b hearing that noise. I think wen the previous gasket was changed it wasnt replaced with the original one.
He still said that the black smoke is cause by the air flow meter and i ve tried two but didnt work. I tot wen catalytic converter is bad, i ll be perceiving rotten egg smell from the exhaust? I planned taking to mechanic tomorrow but the worst happen today. My friend just bashed the car with a range rover 2014. The front is finished my broda. I pray the own forgives my car Amen!!!

Hello MB family. A idea just flashed thru my head about taking this thread to another level by having instant chats & reply.
I'm thinking the Admin of this thread can start of a BBM channel dedicated to MB fans in Nigeria. That will give instant messages & reply a boost.

I don't use Bbm but it's a grt idea. In case the person is stranded, he or she can get quick soln(s). Nice one

I could remember that it was frustrating getting the right one for the car. Was looking for Borsch or so. Each supposedly new one brought ooze out black smoke and I immediately had it remove.
It wasn't until when the sixth one was brought, no smoke and firing smooth that I was confident I had the right one.
Please stick with the one that oozes no black smoke. How I wish I can further help u.



Thanks I ll look for some of them to try with. At least I ve known that, I won't just try one n conclude. I appreciate.

I also have a c200 kompressor. I remembered that I once had thick smoke coming from my exhaust one time. It was as a result of a bad air flowmeter and it stopped when I had it changed (some call it air mass). Have u recently changed ur flowmeter?
Am no guru but that was my experience

I brought one today on the agreement that if it stops the smoke I ll pay but after changing it, it still remained same. Do I ve to run my engine with the one I brought today to clear the black smoke b4 it comes to normal? Anyways according to the seller, he gave me is a second hand use from America.

Still wondering

Klimt what model is your Benz and the engine size?
and is your check engine light on?
What is your mechanic saying as well?
What range of oil are you using?

Engine type is W203 c200 kompressor red top.
check engine light is not on but I see some faults abt four like visit coolant shop,brake lining etc.
My mechanic said the timing is not complete it's remaining one teeth. Some said its timing valve n some said that it's the metal sound.
I use mobil HXP.

Thnks for ur concern.
