How can steering wheel cause car cutt off
Hello
I just started the car, after 1-2 minutes I moved the steering wheel but the car was turning off.
I was wondering because it was like a manual gearbox car if you remove the clutch too fast.
How this can happen in my automatic w211?
Also steering wheel when turning makes a kind of noise, checked the fluid level but it's ok.
Any idea??

One of possible explanation is that your malfunctioning PS pump puts high-torque demand while turning and that is killing the engine at idle.
With higher rpm either the pump will turn, or the belt will slip.

I found the oil level too low today
after adding some oil the roar was disappeared and the steering wheel moves freely
I will see tomorrow if that makes a difference when I will cold start the car
the mechanic checked the transmission oil and it was dirty, almost black, so I have set an appointment to change it, probably during weekend
is there a possibility that the cut off is caused by the transmission oil??
when cold started, I am having heavy shakes when engaged the D or R, so probably also the shut down is similar?

Dirty transmission fluid should not affect engine idling.
Is your mechanic going to do pan drop change, or flush?
I assume you have 5-sp?

If you have really dark fluid (what's the mileage?) you want it flushed.
The best method is drop the pan, wipe it off very well, than install a hose in the hole where the filter goes, stick the hose in the bucket with 5 gall of new ATF and start the engine, to suck the new ATF, while the old one will drip down to your big catching pan.

the mileage is 184.000km but unfortunately I am not sure if it is real and not lowered
I dont know the service history and this is bad because I dont know when they did the last change, so probably I should check and change everything step by step

today I have noticed something different
it seems not to be the steering wheel but probably something in the engine, when started in the morning, it start immediately and perfectly. If I directly engage the R or D, it starts shaking and tents to shut down. Today I noticed that in that moment it produces black smoke. If I accelerate it disappears.
I am afraid that it can be an injector !?!
