230 Kompressor stutter after kickdown.
Hi Guys,
First of all sorry for my bad English, i'm from Holland.
My CLK 230K will go stutter and hesitating on the throttle after a good kickdown.
After driving the car normal about 5-10 minutes the stutter and hesitating goes away itself, and then i will have good power again, i don't restart the car or something.
I've changed:
Sparkplugs
Sparkplug wires
MAF
Camshaft sensor(2 times first Febi and now Hella, didn't trust the Febi)
Camshaft Adjuster Magnet with stop leak cabel
Serviced it like oil and airfilter
Throttle Value Sensor under hood
Car still gives 2 faultcodes:
- Camshaft sensor (still after changing it..)
- Camshaft timing to Crankshaft incorrect.
I don't think it's the timing chain because if i don't use the kickdown the car is really fast and has good compressor whine.
Checked the Bypass Valve at the airfilter and it's closing good when using the throttle.
I'm thinking about a ignition coil which is failing under high load when using the kickdown.
Do you guys maybe have an idea?
M111.975 from 1999.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your advice!
I've cleaned the throttle body, there where some hard dirts in there. Had to peel them of with my nail.
Changed my K&N airfilter for a original one, read some bad things about the K&N.
Redone the sparkplug wires because they not laying correctly in my eyes, there is one short and one a bit longer and these where fitted wrong.
After that leaving the ignition on for 5 minutes to relearn the throttle body.
And now... after a drive for about 30 minutes, the stutter and choking is away even after the kickdown! It's now going fast haha!
Will take the car out for a long ride end of the week and hoping that it will stay good.
Thanks for the help!
