Car Is Acting Up...Need Help Please!
Hey everyone, we got a 2002 E320 with approximately 77000 miles on it. I has begun to shake/jerk really bad at idle and parked at a stand still. When driven the jerkiness goes away but I can definitely tell the car is not driving like it should. The check engine light is on. We had brought it to our local mechanic and they changed out the sparks plug and the 3rd injector which got it to drive a little smoother but it is still very bad.
Any idea of what the problem could be/is will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Common for
morons to toss in plugs and start changing injectors without a clue as to what is the real cause. Have you read the code or codes?
Do so and report back.

went to the local autozone just now and they plugged in the obd2 and this is what they came out with:
injector circuit open - cylinder 1, 2, and 4
random cylinder misfire detected
cylinder 1, 4, and 5 misfire condition
Im not really sure what any of this means so any info is great lol
Thanks

Had the samething happen to me, only I had an O2 code and all cylinder misfires bank 2 and it ended up being a bad injector. Your's sounds like it could be a wiring gremlen. I see that ohlord is watching this thread so he should be able to solve it for you. Just curious if you have any raw gasoline odor? Or poor gas mileage before this progressed?
