I have a 300td 4matic 1993 350,000 kilometers.Works fine .Sometimes when I start the car from cold the engine missfires for a second,probably because the diesel has dropped back a bit.When this happens the 4matic warning light comes on and no 4 wheel drive. If I disconnect the battery and allow the computer to settle back to factory default settings and then reconnect and then start the car the fault is gone. The question is can I put a manual swith in the system so that I can switch on the four wheel drive when i need it? And where would the swith go ,has anybody experienced anything like this?This is a wonderful car and Ive never even seen another 300 Turbo diesel Estate,plenty of petrol ones so id like to fix it
