2002 e55 woes. Help?
I aquired my e55 (Moxxi) a few months back. Did the fluids, belt, and a couple pulleys to stay somewhat up-to-date. Has been running like a champ since day one, until recently.
Like any another day, woke up and went to work. Attempted to start her up at the end of the day and received the dreaded warnings.
The engine cranked, caught, and was immediately cut off. ESP appeared on my LCD along with the BAS/ESP and CEL lights. My Scangauge returned P0221/P0122 and P0100
A quick Google search suggested a turn of the key wasn't going to do it, so I floor it and crank, RPMs hit 4.5k, Moxxi turns over and stays on. Attempted to drive off, but I wasn't going anywhere topping off at 10mph. I park her for the weekend.
I comeback, change the brake switch, no change, so I throw a new TPS in there, TPS codes go away and reports 99 (completely open) to my Scangauge when floored but my starting issue along with limp mode remain. I start her up again with the flooring method described above. White smoke blows out the exhaust, RPMs are normal (see pic)... hmm. I get her home with my buddy behind me, hazards going. The drive was very shady, pedal was on the carpet the entire time, reached 15mph and that took forever. The ride was rough, afraid she was going to stall at any moment. Got home and parked, idle was rough and shakey.
Tomorrow, I'll be replacing the air filters and cleaning my MAF, hopefully that makes a difference. In the meantime, does anybody have suggestions? My fuses looked fine when I checked. Anything else I should check, please let me know. Attaching pictures.
