Default having trouble

I am having trouble sometimes when i start my car. It would start but then shut off by itself. doesnt anyone have any clue of what is wrong. If it is a minor problem that can be fixed i would like to know so i dont have to take it into the shop. plus i would like to find a place where i can find get lowering springs that are good and not that expensive.

i was looking at some new mercedes yesterday. and some of the new models dont look that good.. but it still doesnt mean that i dont like mercedes.. i have a 2000 230 k and i think it is just awsome. Im wondering if any of you have a c43 mercedes.. i just read about it in a magizine... and it said that it had like 300 some hp... now that is a car i would like tog et.. but i dont know where to find one. i also read that even with that much hp it 0-60 is pretty ugly.. it is a v-8. which im surprised that it can even fit. but it said that only about 500 was made. so any of you guys have a pic of wat one looks like

There's a TSB on your car model that states if the car stumbles or dies after the initial start than the mass air meter is at fault.

I also have a c220 and i would like to know if its a bad thing that i havent changed the air filter since i bought it. it is a 95 and has 104,000miles on it... plus when i was looking under the hood i could see that there is oil leaking.. its is there anything else that i should change if there is that many miles on it.. when my dad had it he just let the dealer ship handle it all.. and now that i look at everything it just looks like i have a lot of things to change.. is it a good thing if i put a turbo on it.. i was looking though some magazines of mercedes part and is has custom made turbos for c classes.. and think that 148 hp isnt enough.
