Hi Jim,

How have you been? Haven’t spoken if a while.

I have a similar problem with my 99 S420. However it is hard starting when it is cold, normally I have to crank about 5 seconds, turn off ignition and re crank another 5 seconds before it starts. After it is warm it starts on first crank. Also, during idle the engine will occasionally hesitate, lose RPM, then return to correct idle. Any idea what my problem is?

Thanks
Eric
