Acceleraton issue
Acceleraton issue
Hi guys,
I have a 2001 ML320 which is having trouble accelerating. I have changed MAF and replaced battery. Hubby says it's fine but as the driver, I can see/feel the issue. Even my 15yo can tell when the acceleration power has gone. It doesn't shut down or stop, it is just so slow to accelerate. I am at my wits end with the car! Any ideas on what I can do next? I'm trying to avoid a dealership as they charge astronomical prices for minimum work. My local guy is away for a few weeks and I can't survive our Summer holidays with no car.
Thanks in advance.

What happens after 25 MPH?
Why did you change the battery and MAF?
Did the problem occur after you changed the battery?
