EDC light keeps coming on my Mercedes c220 diesel and losing power at 3,500 revs,
If it is acting like you are revving up, the torque converter has failed.
There must be a "check engine" light on. Start with investigating the DTC's (Diagnostic Trouble Codes).
Problem with the choke or cold start injector system.
corsa 1.5 diesel lumpy at start up with white smoke from exhaust returning to normal after a couple of minuets
White smoke at start up is due to moisture in the exhaust or on a diesel it can be normal due to the engine being cold.White smoke at start up is due to moisture in the exhaust or on a diesel it can be normal due to the engine being cold.
as it is diesel it needs glow plugs to warm up prior to start up,that is why you get the little squiggle light on ur dash,when that goes out you are ready to start it up...diesel motors don't have spark plugs...compression ignition.so if you keep trying to start straight away you will only end up replacing the glow plugs.
The most comon cause of an engine that keeps revving up and down (aka surging) is a dirty air filter.
If the engine is revving up, then the transmission is having problems. If the engine is not revving, then check the linkage from the accelerator to the throttle body.
Becuase you're revving the engine. Becuase you're revving the engine.
You could blow your engine up.
When you start a diesel you must know that it does not have spark plugs it has glow plugs therefore it has to warm up for about 5-10 seconds you can pertain to this by checking if there is a spiral lit up or "wait to start"both should be in your info center or near your odometers and gauges
