W210 Station , Year 2000, Engine OM611 220 CDI 143CV - Black Smoke Bad Idle
Hello,
I have a W210 Station , Year 2000, Engine OM611 220 CDI 143CV, Automatic
I ´ve been struggeling for long time about rough / unstable idle and exhaust smoke (mainly when climbing hills or passing other cars).
Most of the CDI´s from this generation suffer from same smoking problem
I read a comment on a youtube video, where a guy said that he solved this two issues, just unplugging the IAT (input air temperature) sensor.
Couldn´t believe it, WORKS! Just like a miracle, IAT unplugged and no more visible smoke, idle is perfect! Even the exhaust smell is less active , almost imperceptible!
I bought a new sensor, but with the new sensor, the problems return
Have anyone here had this fight before ?
Note: I´m also struggling with the Admission Intake Inlet Manifold Swirl Flaps... they ate not opening, but they move free, and have recently been clean.
With car connected to computer, the swirl flaps respont to the open / close command, so the motor/mechanist are ok.
I´m tempted to delete this swirl flaps... Opinios are appreciated !

I dont know on these vehicles but on cummins if I remember correctly the older new ones you could do that and it defaulted to a standard reading which could theoretically smooth things out if it was acting up. On those ya usually got a code however.
Im all for removing stuff that looks or operates like a flap or restriction but thats just me, other educated peoples may have a informed opinion on that.
