Stepped on gas on my 2004 mercedes c240 and no acceleration then engine light came on, whats going on ?

Is it a drive by wire throtte?

When the light is on go and hook into the obd2 plug and get the codes.google search the codes and have that part replaced then erase codes.

Go to Advance Auto or Auto Zone and ask them to read the error codes. Then lookup those codes on the Internet or post them on https://mbworld.org/

The most common problem for this is the fuel filter or dirty spark plugs. If it is the plugs you would have a slight miss when idleing or be able to smell gas fumes from exhaust. Also your gas mileage would go down. The fuel filter will cause the vehicle to feel like it will stall and die when you try to accelerate or raise the rpm's in idle. I hope this helps. If you try both and it does not help try pulling the trouble codes and having them checked.

Check the pole/cord going to your gas pedel..u may have to take up the carpet.. but it could be a bearing in the pedel..

that lite can mean u hav an air leak effecting the fuel area or the 02 sensors r failing-hav car code scanned

Yup, either NO fuel or NO spark !!

Gasoline- thank you. Warm up is not an issue like diesel is. Sounds like the choke is is either wide open or over choking. With the engine cold, remove the air cleaner and note where the plate is at the opening of the carb. If it is wide open then without touching anything else and engine not running, step down on the gas pedal and see if the choke plate reset itself to restricter the carb inlet. If it didn't, then take some WD 40 and spray the linkages and the rod ends holdin the choke plate.By hand work the plate and linkage holding the gas open at the carb. Then set the plate to wide open and do the gas pedal thing agan to see if choke sets itself back to restricting the carb intake. If it does, start the engine and as the engine warms upm the choke plate should start opening on its own and you are off and running. Roitine question. Is your air cleaner clean? If the choke plate needs adjusting. get back to me. K? Good luck Remember to press the gas pedal down once before cranking. That sets the choke for cold start. Hope this helped you Good luck Note, the WD40 won't hurt anything but avoid spraying with engine running or when engine is hot..

have you checked firing order on plug wires? could be problem.

Hi, You need to replace the alarm siren. It is also a module. It is located in the right front fender well. The reason they go bad is because they are located in a place where they get wet.
