2002 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Logo
Posted on Nov 25, 2010

My Mercedes C270 CDi has very low power on a cold start. I need to drive a few km's, switch off and restart, then everthing is 100%. If I don't do the restart the low power problem never corrects. When I say cold start, ambient temp is around 15 Celcius. I suspect a fuel supply problem or a sensor that does not work correctly until the engine has warmed up. The agents want me to replace the injectors and the turbo. This seems illogical to me as the car drives perfect once I do the warm restart. Any ideas out there.

change search query for any other parts, remove +cylinder+head+ and add the part. Ideally, you should have the service manual.
