I recommend submitting the code numbers, do a bit of research, and possibly check lines for cracks, wear/tear and replace around engine. Ensure the EGR vavle is secure tightly, and you may (if not done already) swap out breather hoses for both sides. GL

hello mr plutoe i took your advice and checked vaccum hoses and found some dry brittle hoses,after changing the hoses and clearing the p0400 code the light never returned.now my 2006 E500 is getting better. I goal is to restore the car to its original condition or as close as i can .My next project is the replacement of aftermarket low beam bulbs,previous owner wired led aftermarket lights and hacked up the wiring.every body out their be careful when buying a used car,i don't know what else to expect.
