P2201 NoX bank 1
52k miles and I now have a code. Is the sensor gone bad or can something else drive this, bad fuel, clogged fuel filter?
Is this sensor really $400 plus tax, that's craziness!! And there are 2!

Our 2013 S350 recently got the same code, P2201, plus P229F. Both indicate a problem with the front NOx sensor. It's still under CPO warranty and the dealer just replaced the sensor. Thank God for the warranty! It is an expensive part.
If not for the warranty, I'd check into trying to clean the sensor.
Car has 43K miles.

Same NOx problem - Caused by low-quality fuel
I drove to Bulgaria and filled up at some random gas station. A few days later the check engine light came on.
P229F Nox sensor 2 bank 1
P2201 Nox sensor 1 bank 1
Apparently, low-quality fuel will damage your sensors. Both need to be replaced now.

Most of these problems are related to Mercedes and Bosch causing it to begin with.
Mercedes and Bosch are going to lose more the a few billion dollars. They are going to lose their reputation, customer trust and confidence in their product and services.
Mercedes is obligated to modify/fix majority of the BlueTec cars and vans plus 5 years of warranty after the fix.

ML 350 Blue tec 2013
ML 350 2013
Hi I just joined the forum, I just have the same issue of NOx sensor failure and DefBlue start remaining 5 took it to the dealer since my ML is 2013 and miles 94000 is out of warranty, the cost MB dealer estimated is from 2,300.00 up to 11,000.00 that is because they mentioned if the sensor does not come out clean they will need to replace the whole system. I called MB USA but waiting for an answer on how they can help sine I have been with MB for several with other cars.
Someone mentioned about the software or something to calibrate the NOx sensor does anybody know the application and where to buy it? I am thinking on changing the sensors by myself

The dealer is just coving their butt worst case because the vehicle is 7yrs old and worried the sensor may not come out of the exhaust pipe. You won’t have an issue if care is taken. Meaning if it won’t budge you just heat the bung with a torch to expand the hole amd the sensor will screw right out. They are $400 online for oem. You will have to resent adaptations in Xentry or a local shop with a high end scan tool should be able to do it too. It’s really simple and about a 2hr job tops. You can have Xentry cloned from China (this is what I did) on a laptop, it was about $800 and shipped 2nd day air.
