Good day folks. Pls I'm having problem of hard starting in the morning with my C180 w202. Problem started about 4days ago. I don't really know what I do right to get it to start as every morning, I have to keep touching and pressing the fuse box in the bonnet and the one in the trunk severally before it finally agree to start. But once it starts, even if I switch it off immediately, the vehicle will have no problem of starting again through out the day till next morning. Like if I struggle and it starts and I shut the car down immediately, don't try to start again till in the evening, it will start on first kick. But if I use the car and shut it off by 1am, the car will struggle to start when day breaks. Kindly assist me.

I suspect your fuel pump or a relay that functions when temperature is warm(due to bridging) and fails when cold.

Do you think it may be the fuel filter underneath the car (one that resembles a can of peak milk)? Mech is saying it is clogged and may be affecting fuel pressure in the morning. That I should change it.

It would be difficult to give diagnose remotely.
Kindly call 07089030689 if in Lagos for further diagnosis

Lemme pick a few wrong assumptions.
1. Overfilling the radiator coolant wont make the hose burst, this is because this engine regulates the coolant by itself to the normal level and discharges the excess
2.If you drive that engine( M111.955) and all the coolant leaks out the engine will shut down at a certain temperature in order to protect it and prevent any harm to the top cylinder or engine.

It is either you have the wrong engine or your engine has been so kazeemized that all those features dont function anymore.Best bet is to buy another engine which i think you have done but you see that engine in that picture? smiles.......e get as e be.Well hope your car is fine now.

Thanks for your reply. The new engine has been installed and all seem fine with the car now.

Hello house.
I changed my C class engine as the previous one got overheated and I decided to drive it to a safe place. It stopped and knocked off my block engine.
For this new one, after successful mounting and coupling, it refuses to start. They said the key started was damaged by the mechanic, had to get a new one. The vehicle worked for like 10mins upon steaming and went off. They said a Coil is not working, I got a new Coil. Vehicle still didn't start. They now said the ECU maybe faulty that I shd take it for testing. They tested and said only two plug sensors are working out of the 6. I'm maxed out right now and don't want to spend another dime with my vehicle not working.
Any recommendations of a good mechanic and auto electrician in Abuja?
Thanks

Ignore that dude.
I have the 09 cls550 and 2015 variant, and I can give you first hand experience, not hearsay.


I'm assuming you're looking at the 2009 generations downwards.

Things to look out for....
The engine is almost indestructible, with the 302 hp(cls500) always roaring when you need it.

The airmatic suspension gives you this buttery riding experience.
My older cls550 still turns heads.

Cons.
The transmission is fragile, so you need original fluids.
If you can, replace the airmatic to regular struts.


I've had mine for 3 years now, and I've not had issues other than the regular oil change, once in 6 months, and minor suspension replacements.


YOLO.

Thank you bro.
And again, for that enormous V8, it's never a fuel guzzler.

A full tank takes me considerably long, although I got mine with the catalyst still intact.
The parts are fairly cheap unlike its 4matic counterparts.

Budget 60k for its oil change every 6 months.

8 liters of original Mobil 1 should do, alongside the OEM mercedes benz oil filter.

I rarely drive my 015 except on special occasions, and I've turned the 09 to a daily driver, as it's ever reliable.

I have an affinity for white cars, so choose a color that suits your preference.

Again,YOLO.
