problem #1

Mar 012017

C230 2.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 150,000 miles

Car goes on LIMP MODE.. 0-40 on first gear and will not shift.. Have to start in Neutral and put on Drive after to have it running over 40mph .... Slow start until in catches up to speed. Conductor plate is what is causing the issue. its an on going problem with Mercedes and hope they they get sued for this total recall. Parts are made in plastic. German engineered and they make part with plastic. REALLY

Also the intake flap its also made of plastic, the rod will heat up and break off causing a intake manifold removal job to replace the intake rod to a metal piece.. Horrible design Never buying another Mercedes again. I should of stick with the my Japanese vehicle and my ACURA still running with 300,000
