Check Engine Light and Code P0305, P0304, P0307, P0300

Today while driving 2001 W210 E-430 got CEL. Used OBDII and got following Codes.

Ohlord help here please.

Currnet Codes

P0305
P0304
P0307
P0300

Pending Codes

P0300
P0305
P0304
P0306
P0307

MAF was replaced 6 months ago, bought from Autohause of AZ.

Car has 104K Miles.

Why P0300? I can't believe I should have misfire on that many cylinders. Is it O2 Sensors?

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Clear the codes

how is it running now?
Had you prior to having the cel come on revved the engine in park or neutral past 3800 rpm. or revved it and dropped it into gear?
1 miss on bank 1 and 3 on bank 2,sounds like you came up on the secondary rev limiter. It will do that.
if not a bad cat or o2 but they will be showing codes.If it is running fine and the above had occured,therin lies the prob and the solution.Don't rev it past the limiter for park/neutral.If you did not do that,give me a call.We'll figure it out.

Ohlord, thanks for your help.

Ohlord, thanks for your help. Car is running fine now. It was issue with rev it past the limiter for park/neutral. No more code.

I need to buy another OBD II CAN scanner. Do you know Harbor Frieght Tools selling these for $39.99 during holidays? Or you recommend any other one.

After more then a year, today while driving I got CEL. Car is running good and I don't feel any noise or harsh running issue. All looks normal.

I scan with OBDII (HF) and found following codes.

P0305
P0304
P0306
P0307
P0300

I found same pending codes also. I reset the CEL. Drove little bit and CEL has been OFF.

I don't hear and noise from CAT, so Cat's should be ok. I replaced the MAF in June 2008.

Any advise or feed back will be greatly appreciated.

Ohlord, any idea?

Time to check

cat operation with a temp gun.
Pm me if you can't find the post on how to do that.
Next at the miles you are at O2 sensors are past due being changed out and can cause not only the miss but also compromise your fuel economy.
I got them,if you need them.
