MODERN CLASSIC MERCEDES DIAGNOSTICS
The age of your modern classic Mercedes-Benz will determine the complexity and/or presence of an onboard computer that will reveal any engine or mechanical issues with your vehicle. The emerging technology used in your 1990s or early 2000s Mercedes-Benz can be complicated, requiring new thinking and the right diagnostic tools to find the root cause of an issue.
THE PURPOSE OF A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK:
This process focuses on establishing, assessing and evaluating all known and unknown mechanical or electrical faults you are experiencing with your modern classic Mercedes. This is a tailored approach to your model of modern classic Meredes-Benz.
PROBLEMS YOU MAY BE EXPERIENCING:
Hesitant or jerking acceleration.
This could be caused by failing MAF sensors. These control the flow of air into the engine’s intake and thus enable the engine to combine the right amount of spark, detonation and fuel to achieve the right amount of acceleration. The usual signs of poor economy and performance can be confirmed using the correct ECU readers to reveal error codes.
HOW IT WORKS?
We’ll start by understanding the issues you are experiencing, before carrying out a road test (if running) to get to know your vehicle in the real world. We’ll then promptly utilise our advanced systems to investigate what might be causing the issues. This will then be combined with thorough manual investigation, inspecting all connected components to ensure that we don’t miss any connected issues.
