Mercedes ML Diesel - W164 320 CDI Hesitation and Limp Mode DIY Fix

[@felipeblank5876]

Absolutamente perfeito! Tenho um VW Tiguan 2.0T gasolina e quero comprar um ML320 cdi 2009 diesel. Tenho medo dos problemas e falta de peças aqui no Brasil. Parabéns pelo seu canal. Forte abraço.

Thanks for the all the videos Glen I learned a lot about this car and the way to maintain it. I am the guy who bought this car from you, and it was driving perfect till about a month ago when I've experienced loss of power and the car going in the limp mode. Restarting the engine makes the problem go away, and since then it went in the limp mode several times but the Engine check light never comes on. The OBD codes that i am getting are: P2510, P2511, P2513, P2359 and most recent is P0404, referring to EGR valve. I've seen many videos about these code problems and they all point and relate to faulty turbo actuator. Now, my question is, Glen - did you experience any of the symptoms in the period of between this video and the time I bought the car from you. Your answer, I hope, would help me narrow down all the possibilities to the real problem. You've mentioned that you've got a warranty on the part and I would like to know if you would be willing to help me out to claim the warranty for the part for what I would reimburse you for your trouble and expenses. Once again thanks very much, Glen! Your videos are great and much appreciated. Andy

Hi Andy, Ok, so first the ML did not throw any mechanical codes since the turbo actuator repair - or any symptoms of an issue. Second - according to Xemodex website a subsequent owned has warranty coverage for 1 year after the repair. According to my receipt that was Nov 24, 2022 so you still have warranty coverage. I’ll send you a picture of the receipt through messenger. Cheers

Hi Glenn did the engine light come on when it went to Limp Mode ?

[@boatinglife1]

That was quite some time ago but if my memory serves the light did not come on. Just had the total lack of power and ably a few gears available. At first you think the transmission went!

[@sadder9531]

i changed that part too but the problem started again, i think its a resistor which fail inside

[@boatinglife1]

Did you have the actuator repaired (like I did) or did you buy a Chinese one?
