Pro Tip...you should have pre-spun the sensor in the opposite direction, the same number of turns it takes to tighten the sensor. By doing so, the sensor wiring will not end up all twisted up.

We had this same problem on a 2016 Sprinter when the AdBlue warning and engine management light came on each trip after about 70 miles, and continued to limp mode. We called out Mercedes breakdown 4 times and took the van to our Mercedes main dealer where we spent several hundred pounds on their suggested cures. In spite of that, the problem continued. Having watched your video, we carried out your suggested cleaning of the Nox sensors which has completely cured the problem.

I used your procedure to clean Nox sensor on my low mileage Mercedes Vito crew van. Only hitch for me was getting the sensor out of the exhaust, I had one of the sensor extraction sockets but it was not a tight 22mm fit and turned on the sensor bolt, I was afraid of rounding the bolt. Eventually applied a little heat to the exhaust and it turned OK using an open 22mm spanner. The rest of the job went exactly as shown in the video. I found that the fault codes did not reset until I had taken the van for a run - about ten minutes - then they all reset and fault light now gone from the dash, also MPG has returned (increased) back to pre fault performance. Thanks for the video, simple to follow and saved me a lot of money had I taken to the dealer.

Great video! The reason for the increased fuel usage with a faulty NOx sensor is that the car will go into a fixed mode trying to reduse the NOx emissions. NOx is created by pressure and heat, running richer will cool of the engine and reduce NOx and that is what the car will do to mange legislation. A NOx sensor allowes the engine to run leaner.

Thank you for your video, the idea of just cleaning a carbon "infested" sensor for the 1/100's cost vs having the dealer replacing it really appealed to me. I own a 2014 GLK 250 with 50k on it. As the story goes the CEL light came on, scanned and found NOx sensor fault. I started removing it using an 18" bar and suddenly "successfully" snapped the removal tool into two pieces. What now - I was thinking. Well I resorted to my 14" pipe wrench which did the trick, no problem. I took both sensors out, soaked them for 24 hours, flushed and reinstalled them. I then turned the engine on, ran it but the CEL only would go out after erasing the fault code. So far so good after a week and 100 miles. I'm now a happy subscriber.

[@michaelwelschmidt9338]

I think one of those, the most rearward, is the soot sensor. The other is Bank 1 sensor 2. Bank 1 sensor 1 should be upstream. Also, the Mercedes diesel exhaust sensor are VERY fuel sensitive. If you use Top Tier brands of diesel, like Shell, Mobil, and Sunoco, you will have fewer problems. If you use cheap diesel from small stations, the fuel can be dirty with paraffins and other contaminants. These engines require the absolutely most clean full synthetic oils because if any soot escapes from lesser quality oils beyond the rings into the exhaust, it will foul the sensors. Even regular Mobil 1 is too dirty. If you know that even traces of Mobil 1 in the exhaust is too dirty and will foul the exhaust components, just think what dirty fuel will do from Bubba’s Truck Stop. Also, soak those sensors with PB Blaster overnight, start the car for 5 minutes, shut it off and soak it again with PB Blaster for a day. Then they will come off with a crescent wrench and a couple of hits with a hammer.

I am not sure you what you were looking at in the video but you would want to clean both the NOX and SOOT sensors. 3 Generally speaking the dealer could be forced to fix EMMISION issues but why don't you give this simple fix a try first. Be sure to subscribe to our family here as we like people who ask questions and leave constructive comments as this contributes to our whole community. Welcome Aboard

Nice video, thank you for uploading! I have a Mercedes V-klass 2,5 4WheelDrive 2018, with 40.000km on it and already my engine indicator is burning. Saying ^NOx Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Bank 1^ is this also easy to clean of easy to get acces to the sensor beacause its 2018? If i am guessing right it has 2 sensors to be cleaned or changed? Can u please give me a advise what to do? Buy or try to clean. Thank You!

[@gmiller4326]

SaQuil, Thank you for the contribution. Well, like so many others here... it makes sense to spend $10 and clean the sensor and if it doesn't work, you can always take the car to the dealer and pay them to replace it.

[@TheJewelleryWorkshop]

Hi buddy, I got a c220d Nox sensor issue started 3 years ago and Mercedes accepted liability and replaced. It then needed replacing 2 more times within 2 years. But the third time they made an excuse telling me that the ad blu was contaminated (no idea how) and that may be causing the issue and they didn’t replace. Do you think cleaning the sensors will be better or having the nox sensor and the ad blu mapped out of the system would be better(assuming they won’t effect the performance of the car) Thanks

[@millerfamilyfarmtrust6515]

@TheJewelleryWorkshop Well, its hard to tell what is causing the issue if it has been replaced that often but as long as Mercedes is willing to keep replacing the sensor, I would let them. Also, there are Lemon Laws that come in to play on items that keep failing time and time again. Mercedes generally will stand by thier repair even after warranty period if they have repaired it once as their view point is it wasnt repaired properly or you would be back with the same issue. I know its frustrating but as long as Mercedes is still swapping out the sensor, why not let them and you can always go the route of Lemon Law if all else fails becuase this is a common problem that has not been dealth with properly.

The car drives absolutely fine is this something I could fix any help would be much appreciated or could I use this same cleaning method mabe to clean it

Welcome Dzgdot, I would recommend googling the fault codes to see exactly what we are dealing with and if it is sensor related in the exhaust system.

Romona, Really hard to tell as the NOX sensors are "Plug-N-Play" and just need to reset the computer to let it know there is a new sensor. Sometimes, its a good idea to take it to a real Mercedes dealer to diagnose and give you a quote to fix. You can then jut tell the dealer you will need to come back when you have enough money or use the information to fix the underlying problem. Good luck!!

I am trying that and will see if it works. It is the second time in 2 years we have the nox sensor check engine in 2-3 years and wondering if it is caused by not using the mercedez bluetec. I am using DEF that is supposed to be meeting the iso standard specified by mercedez but do you think it might be the caused or am I just unlucky. Just because of the sensor this 250 bluetec is a nightmare. And Mercedez service is absolutely atrocious. They will charge me 1 hour labor just to diagnose, so about 200 $. Then then probably 1000$ to fix.

Will this sensor cause engine light to come on ? Thanks

[@millerfamilyfarmtrust6515]

Yes Mike, these sensors do cause the engine light to come on but you can take your vehicle to your local parts store and have them run a FREE diagnotic on the engine to dtermine if it is a sensor issue.

How lazy can u be? Be a man n do it yourself SMH

[@gman1003]

I have told a local mechanic from Toronto to come and help you, you just have to go and sit out by the road and wear a red ball cap so he knows it's you. He'll be along shortly.

Did you get your ml fixed?

[@sail02878]

I am finding the 7/8" nox sensor tool a little loose - has anyone found a 22mm version?

[@gmiller4326]

Sail, I found it a little loose as well but it works. I don't think there is a 22mm version but a quick phone call to any parts store would let you know for sure. Let us know how things go....

[@hamantmistry1596]

Hi i have ml 350 bluetec 2013 would the above work on thay suv

[@millerfamilyfarmtrust6515]

Hello Hamant I am not a mechanic but if your have sensor problems, it's worth a try.

[@mariafagundes2923]

is that sensor you are doing the driver or passenger side

[@millerfamilyfarmtrust6515]

I did both sensors on both the driver side and passenger side.

[@sheriffbart616]

so, how long did that fix last for?

[@gmiller4326]

Hello Sheriff Bart, It lasted for at least a year until I sold the Mercedes. Lets face it., its a simple 15 minute job that saves you $1000s so if you had to do it every year or 2....it would be ok.
