Deceleration Stalling:

-If you put the car in neutral at the same time you decelerate does it stall??

- If you double pedal (one feet on the brake one feet one the throttle) and keep the RPM over 1500 does it stall??

Troubleshooting and Diagnostic

Which procedure have you follow to troubleshoot your problem?

-Thread from this Forum(Specify, give the link)
-Mercedes shop manuel
-Personal procedure
-Guess work

Which part(s) have you replaced and why??

-Ex: -The ovp, because my abs light was flickering

-The 4pin sensor because the spec. was no more then 130 ohms difference between the diag., mine have about 200 ohms difference

Ps. try to give as much spec as you can this will speed up the troubleshooting time for the other members since if they have the spec. it will be easier for them to check.

Do you do any other maintance to the car at same time??

-Ex: -Yes I replace the rotor and cap.
- Yes I replace some of the light in the dashboard

How long since you fixe-it?

-A day
-A week
-A month
-More then a month
Ps. Please keep your report update until it reach more then a month.
