All Engine And Engine Cooling Complaints
YESTERDAY I GOT REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED BECAUSE MY ENGINE STALLED WHILE I WAS APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION AND I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN. THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS RELATED TO A KNOWN MECHANICAL PROBLEM WITH MERCEDES BENZ. FAILURE OF THE CPS (CRANKSHAFT POSITIONING SENSOR) OR ALSO KNOWN AS THE REFERENCE SENSOR. I CHECKED SEVERAL MB FORUMS AND THIS PROBLEM IS NOT UNIQUE, IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY PEOPLE ALREADY. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MB VEHICLES FOR OVER 15 YEARS, AND I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT MB HAS NOT DONE SOMETHING ABOUT THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. I AM DRIVING A '98 E430. THANKS. *JB
