After eleven years of operation it’s not surprising to find a worn out turbocharger. The tell tale sign was a very common engine code for these MBE 900 diesel engines. The SPN 2631 has appeared many times over the years and our shop knows where to look and what testing has to be carried out… Continue reading 2018 Mercedes MBE 900 Engine Code 2631
There is a substantial difference with emissions between 2007 diesel engines and pre 2007 diesel engines. Several add on components were designed to support the reduction of emissions. The older Mercedes in the video is your basic engine with turbocharger, charge air system and standard exhaust. 2007 required more emission reduction adding a diesel particulate… Continue reading Mercedes Diesel Engine Emissions Shop Talk
The EGR cooler is one of the most important components on a diesel engine these days since it controls the amount of exhaust that transfers from the exhaust system in to the intake system. Cooled exhaust funneled to the air intake reduces NOx (nitrogen oxide). You would not think raw exhaust would help reduce emissions… Continue reading Mercedes Diesel Engine EGR Cooler Diagnosis
Mercedes engine codes…..which ones have been the most common and how did we go about fixing them. I will talk about 3 of the most common engines codes to date.

Emissions gets a lot of attention these days especially when Donald Trump starts suggesting he wants to roll back emissions by freezing fuel efficiency standards at 2020 levels all the way through to 2026. This would reduce electric vehicle sales and keep people in gas powered vehicles. The freeze would increase oil consumption to half… Continue reading Mercedes Diesel Engine Emissions
This is a job that is essential due to coolant leaking into the engine oil and vice versa coolant escaping into the combustion chamber. The obvious clue to this issue was an operator complaint of coolant loss. Since we could not detect an external leak all fingers pointed to the EGR cooler. Since this Mercedes… Continue reading EGR Cooler MBE 900 Mercedes Diesel Engine
What would we do without diagnostic software? Absolutely nothing…well nothing productive anyways. It would be the blind leading the blind not knowing what to do or where to go next. Sure you could start guessing and changing parts …expensive parts in most cases but not knowing for sure if what you’re doing is going to… Continue reading Mercedes Diesel Engine Diagnostic Software
The EGR valve is basically an electric motor opening and closing a valve. It’s an integral part of the diesel emission system on all diesel engines (2007 and newer) running on the road today. The job of the EGR is to allow a percentage of exhaust gas directly from the engine to pass through the… Continue reading Testing EGR Valve Mercedes MBE 900 Diesel Engine
Diagnostic software for a diesel engine or any engine for that matter is the best tool you can have in your hands. Mechanics need to use diagnostic software to hook up and see what is happening in real time. Viewing the inside information on an engine electronic control unit will give you a time stamp… Continue reading Diesel Engine Diagnostic Software
