Can anyone help me figure out what wrong with my mercedes?

Asked by dusty May 23, 2021 at 02:11 AM about the 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C 280 4MATIC

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2007 mercedes benz c280 4matic has difficulty
starting at times. It will crank over, but won't start. My bf
will dump a cap full of gas in the carborator or spray some
starting fluid and after a few turns of the ignition it starts
up sometimes. We have replaced the sensors in the front
of the motor (can't remember if those are cam shaft or
crank shaft position sensors but I believe we have done
both. Anyone have any clue what else is wrong with the
car? What else needs to be fixed next?

I would test for fuel pressure next. You can borrow and or rent the gauge and hose at an auto parts store. It might be the fuel pump has failed.

Scan for codes. A 15 year old MB is a financial time bomb. I would sell it before it dies.
