    Multiplexer

    So the multiplexer is for sale. Will sell for $285. Still in the box (which I never opened) I got from overseas. Keep in mind this is compatible with a 1999 Mercedes e300. Roddy Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

    1999 e300 key

    Called my local Mercedes dealership and a replacement key cost $298. Comes from Texas in 2 days. But I was informed that the key self programs when installed in the car. So programming isn't required until 2015 models. That's what the service manager told me. If someone can confirm this then a...

    1999 e300 key

    Ok. Here's how it goes. You go to the Mercedes dealership and provide proof that you own the car. Have the vin and they'll make your key(s). Haven't found out the cost. The story goes something like this. Criminals had someone that would make keys and they would steal the cars. All they needed...

    1999 e300 key

    When I bought my diesel I got only 1 key. Is there an alternative to going to the dealer? There isn't a Mercedes dealership in town. Roddy Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

    Check engine light scanner

    Update I finally got around to replacing the crankshaft position sensor on the Buick. Been leaving a cel for about a year. Engine began to cut out then restart as long as you were going 20 miles an hour or more. But when slowing to a stop if the sensor kicked the ignition signal off the car...

    Check engine light scanner

    Had a very cheap scanner I bought for a dodge. Not near as nice as my primary scanner. But the more expensive scanner wouldn't communicate with the ecm. Well one day I thought to trying the el cheapo scanner and much to my surprise it worked. Got 6 codes. Bought an egr transducer and a maf...

    Check engine light scanner

    I tried the 38 pin to obd2 16 pin adapter with my scanner. Wasn't able to establish communication with the Mercedes ecm. Thought this might work but no. Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

    Check engine light scanner

    Well I did the disconnect the battery, honk the horn a bunch and turned on the lights. Waited like 1/2 hour and hooked up the battery and the cel was still on. Bought a Bluetooth obd2 scanner. Can't get it to communicate. Also bought turbo pro to work with the scanner. After many attempts I...

    Check engine light scanner

    I have a 1999 Mercedes e300 with a cel. I'm looking for a scanner that will work on this year. The scanners I've found only work on diesels 2001 and up. Someone please point me the right direction. I've used my old scanner for years but it won't work on a diesel. Roddy Sent from my SM-G900I...

    what happens if your return line is plugged up or clogged??

    The purpose of the return line is to cool the injection pump and injectors. Trying to defeat the return system will make your injection pump and injectors work harder and fail quicker. When the blockage is discovered and remedied there shouldn't be any restrictions and the return lines should be...

    what happens if your return line is plugged up or clogged??

    Going to be hard to believe. My return lines coming from the injectors is connected to a tee that comes out of the main fuel filter. That tee is connected to a 90° bend fuel line that is connected to a 1 way valve. The one way valve is then connected to the hose that goes to the hard line to the...

    what happens if your return line is plugged up or clogged??

    Ok I have a 1995 Mercedes e300 diesel. My return keeps popping off and spraying fuel everywhere. Because the fuel is coming out of the merge to the return like to the tank is where the pressure is coming from I suspect a blockage somewhere down stream. Side note...I replaced the fuel tank a year...
