Default Temporaly Lost of power - ML - Need Help Please

Just bought my ML320 2 weeks ago and already i have a problem. ( Car is not under warranty anymore )
First it happend maybe once every 1-2 h, right now ist almost every time when driving.
Here is the problem.
When i stop at the light or slowing down to about 5mp/h engine statrs shaking and feels like is about to turn off.
Then when i am pressing acceleration pedal car is not responding for about 2-4 sec. When i press it all the way
its taking off but very slowly.
Feels like there is no power. There is no check engine light on.
Thanks for your help.

Sounds like your running out of gas. It may be your fuel filter or low fuel pressure (fuel pump).

The check engine light just came out.
Code p1074 - i assume it's MAF.
Is there a way to fix it or i have to get new?

Save yourself the trouble. If it is the MAF, change it outright. Also check your CAT and its sensors

My ML is exactly the same way! and it drives me crazy but i don't know what is wrong with it. When you start your car and drive off right away does your car go anywhere? Because on my car whenever i start it and drive off it doesn't go anywhere! the car just shake and feels like its stalling. Is it anything i can fix?

After long research i tryied the cheapest way to fix it.
I bought the electrical cleaner, removed the sensor and clean it.
I used all cleaner - i didn't work at all.
My friend's 2001 E320 has exactly same problem, he did same cleaning procedure on
his sensor and i din't help either.
I saw on ebay some guy selling this sensor for 105usd item nr: 130040426779
but supposly according to mercedes mechanic this will not work.
He's feedback are good and some are MB owners
so i will give a shot and buy it.
Hope this will help.

has it been "B" serviced - if not then this is an essential - if you bought from a MB dealer - please please dont trust them - i and everybody i know who has dealt with an MB dealer curses them - hard hard experience - service your car yourself or by someone you know you can trust!!!
