| 71500 mi | Check engine light came on. Car idled rough. They Removed and Replaced the Intake manifold. Check Engine light came on. It was diagnosed as a bad Catalyst. Covered by emissions warranty. Feel that intake was cause, but MB won't admit to this, as intake would then also fall under emissions warranty. Upon test drive for the other problem, it was found to be "missing." A computer malfunction caused the misfiring, which caused the cat to pack up. |
