W212 limp mode no turbo boost no engine light

Hi, I have an intermittent problem where my 2010 E200 W212 will go into limp mode randomly when I’m driving and I won’t have any turbo boost and the engine management light stays off (most of the time :/).

Any suggestions on what could be the cause and remedy?..

There's actually a class action suit against Benz for this issue.

However, I have no idea if anyone has been able to get the issue fixed by the dealership. Unfortunately the "if we didn't see it, it didn't happen" mentality seems to reign supreme there.
Also, I dunno if you have the same transmission.

Yeah, this is for the 7-speed auto transmission. I'm fortunate enough to not have experienced this yet, but I would take it to the dealer and let them know you're experiencing the issue and if they feign ignorance let them know you already know there's a class action suit against Benz so you doubt they don't know about the problem, and you would just like whatever the cause is to be resolved.
