problem #1

ML320 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 71,000 miles
Intermittent delay of 7 seconds when given gas. The vehicle has been in the dealership 6 times, and they still haven't been able to figure the problem out. The car has had this problem for 2 years. The car is worse when it's hot outside and when the consumer is pulling out. The car doesn't have the problem when it's cooler outside. The dealership has changed out the pedal value sensor, a slide mechanism for the intake manifold, a wiring harness and fan for the ECM, the fuel pump and fuel filter with upgrades, the ECM, and now the wiring harness has to be changed since it was built in germany.
