NormanB,
Just to update you on my "shaking at D, steady at P" problem. I sent the car in for top-overhaul, took 4 working days for the job, got the car back and tested it over the next few days. ...

NormanB,
First of all, thanks for the help & the trouble you go through to entertain this problem of mine. The plugs are ok and of the right type, the exhaust fumes are not white, blue or black,...

NormanB,
The first thing I ask the mechanic to check was the engine mountings, but he said it's still all right. Some ppl think it could be the EGR valve but i dunno where that it. The engine does...

Pentoman,
I certainly hope the problem is behind me. It's certainly scary when the engine just dies while you are driving, not to mention downright dangerous and you just lose confidence in the car...

Today is day 05 since I changed the FPR and day08 since the last occurrence of "sudden death". The car still behaving itself but I still won't be confident yet for at least another week. Will keep...

azhari,
Yep, I have to remove the black plastic cover behind the battery. There will be the FPR and the relay for climate control. That's all. Like you said, the OVP could be on the other side,...

azhari,
Afraid I don't see it. In your pic, it is very visible, but in my W124, it's not in that position. I tried asking the dealer where I bought the fuel pump relay, but he just look blankly at...

azhari,
Forgive my ignorance, but just where is the OVP relay? Is it the air-con relay next to the fuel pump relay as in your picture? I only see 2 relays behind the battery.

azhari, csnow, ejsharp
I replaced the fuel pump relay today. So today is day 1 and will monitor for a couple of weeks. Hope the "sudden death syndrome" will not recur. Incidentally, I was told...

csnow,
In other words, you are saying that it could be a fuel pump problem rather than the relay? Maybe I should change the relay first since it is much cheaper (I assume) & if the problem persists,...

azhari,
I will follow your advice & replace the FPR, since other members seem to think that is the problem too. Depending on the cost, I may also replace the OVP as suggested. Then I'll try it out;...

ejsharp,
Ok, I will replace the fuel relay in total, since it is probably old and the problem may recur at another place on the same board. I'll go get the part after work today & try it out. ...

joe p,
I'm afraid I don't know whether the 124 has the K-jetronic M102. But it could be a senor problem since it is so sudden. Any chance of an air flow sensor problem?

csnow,
I don't know about the fuel pump 'cos this happens so suddenly it catches you totally unawares & that's dangerous. You don't know when it's going to recur. I would think if it is a fuel pump...

Azhari,
You are right; the first time it happens when the car is slowing down due to traffic, the second time when making a turn at the traffic lights. So what do you think is the problem?

Lightbulb "Sudden Death"

I drive a 4 cylinder 230E with W124 engine (1992 model). Just last week, the engine suddenly died on me while on the road - no jittery movements, no prior indication - the engine just died! I pull...
