Thanks

Try 1-888-628-3247. They have a web site but by the time you drill
down to this part, they say ?call us.? This is

Hello Corvallis,
You are absolutely right.  I've been down that road already.  The
problem with the throttle bodies purchased new is that they sell for
more than $2,000 each and it takes two per vehicle.  MB has a definite
design fault in more than 100,000 cars built since the early 1990's,
and if you don't change the wiring harness (which has the same
defective wiring insulation as the throttle bodies), then you end up
replacing thousands of dollars of computers too.
MB should be sued by the US Government, and I've alrady turned this
problem over to my local Congressman for review.
SSSOoooooooooooooooooo, if anyone has a better solution, I'm still looking.
Thanks
J
PS  Corvallis is one of my favorite places.  I have relatives out
there, and you are lucky to be living in heaven on earth!

When this page loads, there is phone number at the bottom. They claim
to rebuild throttle bodies.

Here are three places that claim to rebuild throttle bodies; you'd
have to ask they if they would take on a Mercedes unit.
