I’m having idle vibration on my 01’ 75K miles E320 and decided to computer scan the car at an independent place in Gardena, CA. The results look to me devastating. Maybe the members can decipher the codes and provide an advice on how to treat it. Below I specify only the failed (“-f-“) tests, exactly as they appear on the printout:

Code---------Text-------------------------------------------Status
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
ME2-SFI – Motor Electronics 2.8
P2043 Misfiring (See currently valid STIP) (P0300) STORED
P2044 Misfiring of cylinder 1 (See currently valid STIP) (P0301) STORED

*For this the mechanic suggests replacing all 12 spark plugs, $21/each and 6 coils(?), $127/each, totaling $1,900……

ESP – Electronic stability program
C1200 S9/1 (Stop lamp switch) Plausibility STORED
C1024 Fault in CAN communication with control unit N15/3 (ETC control module) STORED
C1504-009 The system is switched off. Steering angle sensor is not initialized STORED

EIS – Electronic ignition switch ELCODE
B1858 Is actual value S40 (CC switch) plausible? STORED
B1056 Fault in CAN communication with control unit DCM-RL STORED

PSE – Pneumatic system equipment
B1712 The alarm has been activated through component S17/3 STORED
B1709 Component H3/1 is not coded or FAULTY STORED

SAM - Signal acquisition and actuation module
B1217-000 Fault in communication with component B38 (Rain sensor) STORED
B1217-003 Component B38 (Rain sensor) has excess temperature STORED

* It seems my rain sensor works perfectly, at least during the very few rainy days this fall

ICM – Instrument cluster with maintenance interval display
B1108 Fault in CAN communication with control unit N73 (EIS control module) STORED
B1111 Fault in CAN communication with control unit A35/8 (Tele Aid control module) STORED

AUDIO
N1141 Set-actual configuration of D2B ring differs Current and stored
N1112 No data transfer between D2B master and D2B predecessor component possible STORED
N1140 CAN bus-fault

E-call [USA] – Telematic system
N1004 GPS positioning is not assured STORED
N1100 No signal is received from the right-side speed sensors STORED
N1101 No signal is received from the left-side speed sensors STORED

AAC – Automatic air conditioning
B1234 B32 (Sun sensor) STORED
B1416 A31m1 (Coolant circulation pump) STORED


Please, any “translation” to a normal language is appreciated. Suggestions on what/how to do are blessed and can also serve other members in future occurrence.

Thanks in advance,
