By golly, my '98 ML320 has one too! I stand corrected. Seems like the actuation of the throttle is electronic, but there is a cable to engage the transmission kickdown switch. Is this right?

The electronic throttle potentiometer is operated by a cable.
The actual engine throttle body is drive by wire. MB has been using this kind of set-up since ASR and Electric Throttles came out in the early 90's. DR.D

You sound like one of the luckier ML owners.
I had the cracked reservor problem, it leaked fluid on the computer; it eventually broke through the metal and damaged the computer. I had a $1200 computer repair. this is was only one of many problems I've had. |
