I had no problems yesterday, but today as I waited at the traffic lights she just cut out. Got prepared for emergency stop, pumped accelerator again in a last chance hope and magically she jumped back to life. When I pumped accelerator there was nothing, did this twice, still nothing. Here's where it got dangerous, I was driving along at 60mph, and lost all acceleration. It seemed to work, for two weeks, until this week. Took it to the mechanic and again no codes or faults on diagnostics.ĭid some research on forums and had my cps (crank shaft position sensor) replaced with a genuine Mercedes part. Where it got stuck again for hours :Oops: Instead the fan sounded like a jet engine (never heard it do this before).Įventually kwik fit got it started and on the ramp. more embarrassingly I was waiting for tracking check, parked up and when went to put car on ramp, it would not start, at all. Then it happened again, maybe a week later.
As I pulled into town it cut out, completely, (no engine or power but dash lights stayed on) I waited 5 mins then car started fine.
Please, if anyone can help, you may save my day/week/year!Ībout a month ago, my Mercedes ( slk r170 230 kompressor automatic) started playing up.
