Mercedes Benz 2011 C300 4-matic
Unhappy CODE P0010 and P0343

I drive a c300 2011 4matic and my engine light came on my dash one day. I put in my scanner and these these codes came up? Can someone help me fix this problem ? I need help ASAP , I also have 6 other codes (random misfire) , (cylinder 3,2,1 misfire) , (cylinder 3,2 injector circuit low) also a Mass or volume air P0101 code. I would really like to hear of how you guys fixed any of these!!!! school starts in less than a month and I would like to fix these myself since mechanics charge a lot... please be serious I tried looking online everywhere and could not find anyway of fixing these codes!! thanks

Define "everywhere"... Because Googling the 2 codes you posted in the subject line should produce enough search results to give you an idea on what the likely culprit is.

P0010: Component Y49/5 (Right camshaft intake solenoid) has an open circuit in the wiring
P0010: Continuous camshaft adjustment (Right) Incorrect position of the intake camshaft.

P0343: B6/5 (Right intake camshaft Hall sensor) Short circuit to positive or open circuit.

This is the right camshaft position sensor shown inside the red rectangle:




Right Intake Camshaft Position Sensor

Easy to fix/replace those sensors except on the drivers side which are a real be-atch to get at. You have to remove the oil cooler and power steering resevoir to get at them.
