Please tell me if your ABS light was on..... thanks! |
The ABS light would occassionally come up during operation. I did not think about putting 2 and 2.
Now for the bad news. The car stalled twice today. Replacing the OVP has helped, but the engine is still cutting out when the car coasts to a stop. I have tried shifting the car from D to "3" while coasting (thus artificially raising the RPMs) and the engine does not cut out.
Tomorrow I am taking the car to Enrique at Mr. MB Motors. I spoke with him today and he is aware of the 300E stalling issue. Hopefully he will be able to fix it.
This whole situation is so aggravating because other than the stalling issue, the car runs soooooooooooo well. At 187k miles it really runs and feels like a newer car. My daughter really likes her 300TE, but if the stalling is not fixed....
we may have to reconsider our options.
I'll keep everyone posted.
