CEL but no side effects? 95 obdI or obdII?
hey, ok i've had a CEL for a while. but i've never had the car idle rough or bad mpg's or anything. no stank from the zaust or anything. all is well. getting 350 to the tank with mixed driving and the occational flooring. anything i should really check into? i had a cone stuf right to teh maf before the light came on
another question is how would i tell if my car's obd I or obd II? it's a 95 c220.

CEL doesn't always affect idle or MPG. It could be valves somewhere or some part of the emissions is f'd up. So if it comes back, may want to get it checked out.

If you have a REAL problem, the light will come back on shortly thereafter.

i'm also riding with my cel on. when i got it diagnosed from mercedes they said it was a tranny thingy. they said it was the upshift delay valve. when i asked him do i really need to replace it right away and he said it could be off by milliseconds and won't kill anything but needs to be replaced asap about $400 - $100 for diagnostic. my tranny feels smooth to me so i'm going to get my oil leak fixed 1st. hope this helps
