I have a 1997 E230, 70,000 miles. Recently I have had a problem with misfire on acceleration. Not hard acceleration, just farily gently bringing the power back on. Usually after almost coming to a stop at a junction etc.

My mechanic has identified the following as not opering within spec and replaced them: air mass meter, lambada sensor, crank sensor, temperature sensor. He has now replaced the engine wiring harness but the problem still has not gone away.

Any ideas?

 

i had the same problem and found the exhaust was blowing on the joint by the centre box ,

 

what do u mean by the centre box wats that?? because ive got the same problem and ive changed the coils and the sparkplugs and leads and hell they were expensive but did not fix the problem and when my friend scans it on the snap on scanner its says could not communicate with ecm?? please help.
