COLD ENGINE WEIRD START PROBLEM , PLEASE HELP🙏W124 -220e - M111 engine.
Hello ! Dear fellow forum members:
I hope you can help me figure out what is happening with my car's engine.
MODEL: W124 220e (M111 Engine) 1993.
The car has been well maintained, it has been changed: Flowmeter, gaskets, fuel filter filters, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, coils, hoses. The throttle body was also cleaned.
Until a few weeks ago the car was fine but suddenly it started having problems with cold starting.
If I start the car, it starts and turns off completely.
I have to turn it back on, accelerate it to keep it between 5,000 and 10,000 Rpm, then I shift it to D and drive it for two minutes until it reaches a temperature of 40 and the car runs perfectly, I can even stop, turn it off and start it without problems throughout the whole day.
I have read a lot and I think it could be the fuel pressure valve as a starting point. I hope you can give me your opinion.
Thank you very much 🙏
