W203 C230 Check engine light
Hi all,
I'm rather new to this forum and I have done some searching for the problems I have but couldn't find solution.
My C class is a 2006 C230 (V6) with around 110.000 km.
The other day I got a check light on while driving and took the car for diagnostics.
The codes where marked 0746 and 0750.
Now this might be a little problematic since the service doesn't have Stardiagnosis but some Bosch diagnostic system - but the model and engine were matching with the vehicle. Mechanic was able to clear the light and since than it didn't come on but still I want to know why the light came on and didn't go off.
Any help would be great.
Thx,
Toni

Codes get stored in memory and light will remain on until you erase them with diagnostic tool.

New here fellas. My story has been a nightmare. 8 months of agonizing and endless trips to multiple mechanics to fix my Check Engine light and after $2,500 spent and to this day I have had no luck whatsoever. The light keeps coming Back. The mechanics are just part changers ( 3 separate ones) and have no clue in what they are doing and that goes for the dealership as well which are a complete and ultimate scam of all time.
I haven't got my code that has come back on for the 10th time, literally, not exaggerating. I will post the code tomorrow and any help will same me from a complete and utter depression state of being. Thank you in advance and stay tune for my codes and any help with be gratefully appreciated. I'm in Bay area California by the way.

That would've been my first question "what code is it". Followed by "ok, sooo what does that mean?"
Before you start writing checks to the parts changers... Anyways, we will try to help you. Some advice though can you give us some background information on your car? What model, year, engine, how many miles, what work has been done to it...since we are not mind readers

It scares me that you have spoken to that many mechanics and have spent that much money and still have no idea what the code is...

Resolution?
Thank you for your reply. Was having a bit of a problem resigning back on the site. I am going to be having the car checked by a private MBZ specialist that works on these issues to diagnose the issue and address it property. I will keep you posted as how it goes , hopefully I have this resolved soon.
Was there ever a solution? I know this thread is 6 years old, but perhaps youre not a total bag and told someone what became of this. Or possibly you posted a follow up that i havent seen.
