Hey y'all,
Dang good thread here. I enjoyed reading every bit of it even though my main ride is a1988 300 SE. Do these older cars such as mine have a CPS? Thanx in advance for your answer.

Hi, I read this post through and got a feeling that it was my turn to change the damn thing. Ive got a W210 with M112 3.2 engine. MAF was changed a while ago. Over the last year Ive had several times I couldnt start the car after driving and returning to it shortly. The last two times were really nasty. The car was left for an hour or more and when I tried to start it, it just went on turning the starter in vain. For about half an hour and then it started as if nothing had happened. The first time it was without any fire, the next time (in 3 days) it was largely misfiring and working on 2-3 cylinders. For about half an hour, too and then it started, rather unwillingly. No problem since then. Cold start is fine. For most of the time, its fine. So, what do you think? Does it look like CPS? Also, there are 4 options according to detali.ru and elcats.ru. How am I supposed to know which one is mine? (other than removing the part to see the number)

Why not use the official MB Electronic Parts Catalog? It's free, if you're in the US. It's what the dealers' parts guys use to determine the correct part.

Well, Im quite far from the US. I live in Latvia. I could try and ask our dealership to give me the code but they are not extremely willing in this respect. Ive got other sources to buy parts. Is that MB Electronic Parts Catalog online? Probably available from a US IP address only?

Thank you........
