Good idea. Maybe after changing the spark plugs, with 110k miles they’re probably due anyway. On Tue, Dec 5, 2023, at 23:44, Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes wrote: > Swap coil packs around to other zylinders and see if the faults follow them > > --FT > Sent from iFōn > >> On Dec 5, 2023, at 9:17 P

I usually go cheapest first so I’d try the plugs and see if that resolves it. If not, maybe buy 3 coil packs so you can replace the two and have a spare on hand? I usually buy OEM from FCP Euro they have a lifetime warranty on everything they sell. On Tue, Dec 5, 2023, at 21:16, Robert Kozia

If it were really a manual transmission why is there no photo of the tree or floor shift and/or the brake and clutch pedals? It will need an engine rebuild. When all is said and done this is a money pit. On Tue, Dec 5, 2023 at 12:21 PM Randy Bennell via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote:
