Garage Temporarily Empty
w209 Died on the Road Yesterday
Driving in NJ yesterday and using the shifter to go from 2nd to 3rd and at 5000 rpm the car cuts out - no throttle and the ESP letters come up on my display screen where my speed would normally be.
I get to the side of the road and shut the car off. When I try to restart the car, it starts fine, no more ESP in the display but now the check engine light is on.
I had a flatbed pick it up and brought to the dealer.
Pit in my stomach......I am out of warranty.
I wonder what the hell happened.....
I will know more tomorrow when it gets diagnosed.
