well I got my car back with new fuel tank and new fuel pump installed. drove it for a few days to get the tank down to 1/4 full. filled up and started the car....no more sputter!!!! Whoo Hooo!!! Finally!!!
Then I put it in drive....aaaaannnnd here comes the sputter and shaking again. So I took it back to the deal for the 4th time now. Got a call yesterday that "Mercedes" has recommended that all carbon be clean with a "Special" system cleaner. Plus the TECHN FIELD REP will be in a few days now that will run a few tests on it.
F*ck Sakes!! I want my car back!!

My car is still at the dealer. They had a "Field Tech Supervisor" come in Monday. He found a leak in the intake manifold. So they have ordered that part and should have it today.
All I can say is, I am glad this is all under warranty!!

thats odd it sputtered, i've cracked my manifold twice and it never sputtered...btw don't be surprised if it cracks again within 1-2 years mine did, but theyll cover it again if it cracks

Charcoal Canister
Purge Valve
Fuel Filter
Fuel Tank and all associated lines
Fuel Pumps
Intake Manifold
Thanks MB Warranty!!!

UPDATE**********
Just filled up for the 2nd time and no more sputter. It seems that it was the intake manifold all this time. Car runs a little better too, now that I have a intake that is new and "clean".

Interesting...I had a bad issue of that and changed gas to use only Chevron and so far no sputtering. Been a few months now. Idling better and no sputtering. Glad you got it fixed.
