Have a 2 month old 03 CLK500 with 700+ miles. At 550 the check engine light came on & dealer said it was the #1 cyllinder missing so they replaced the coil & then the miss went to #4 & moved around. They changed crank sensor & sent me home. 100+ miles later the check engine light came on again, at the dealer still missing & computer showed codes at 1/2 throttle. The dealer changed coils & wires & still seems to be guessing. They are keeping the car over the weekend since they could not test drive it the way they want in the rain. They wanted to have someone take it home for the weekend to drive it the 100 miles to see if the problem came up again. I said no so theywill test drive Monday but the service writer told me I might be back again with the problem as I live 45 miles each way, I replied then it willbe the 3rd time if it happens again & it qualifies for filing under the Florida lemon law. Any ideas.
