Mercedes Classe E - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe E W211 - Years 2002-2009
Part: Engine
Operation: Camshaft position sensor replacement

If it happens that the engine has difficulty starting especially when hot and that the warning light also comes on, start by checking the fault memory in the engine management control unit: error P0341 refers to the camshaft position sensor; this sensor provides the control unit with information on the position of the camshaft or of the valves, ie on the phase according to which to give the injection sequence to start the engine; it is therefore obvious that an incorrect signal from this sensor causes the starting failure; the sensor is located on the side, under the tappet cover, immediately behind the intake duct: disconnect the relative socket and unscrew the fixing pin to be able to remove it; as a first attempt you can try to clean it before replacing it.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
