2006 c280-fuel issue
Hi, I'm not a new member, but this is my first thread, as I have exhausted all other efforts to resolve problem.
2006 C280. I have run out of gas multiple times. The dash shows that I have more than 1/4 tank but less than 1/2 tank of gas. When add gas, it starts up. My mechanic usually brings a 5 gallon can with him. Afterwards, I replenish fuel to full, which cuts off when I add about 7 gallons. According to the search, the C280 holds at least 14 to 16 gallons, which means I should have at least 2 gallons left.
We have replaced ignition coils, spark plugs, fuel pump relay, fuel pump, and manifold block (because it showed some damage). It continues to do the same, so I ruled out the fuel pump, and was able to send the unit back for full refund, and reinstalled old pump.
Oh, and I've used only premium gas.
Any suggestions?
