1996 SL500 ME Control Unit
My 1996 SL500 would not pass smog (California) due to the "Non-Continuous Monitors not being supported, this was at a smog station. The car runs fine & the emissions are very low. I then had the dealership take a look at the car.......#1 ME Control Unit is faulty....Est. $2400 #2 Air injection ports plugged...Est. $4250 Can anyone tell me what a "ME Control Unit" is? The dealer sure can't describe it. Any help would be appreciated.
