Mercedes-Benz W204 (C300, E350, ML350, & More) Ignition Service Kit - Features, Symptoms, And Product Review
This ignition service kit is designed for Mercedes-Benz models featuring the M272 V6 engine produced from 2006 through 2011. Instead of replacing just one part, save time and effort by replacing everything all at once.
Replacing your spark plugs and ignition coils is one of the easiest ways to breathe new life into your old engine. With basic hand tools and thirty minutes of your time, your car will be running like-new once again. All of the parts in this kit are direct OE replacements for the factory parts.
Mercedes-Benz W204 Ignition System Failure Symptoms
Mentioned above, a properly functioning ignition system is vital to how well your engine runs. The symptoms of failing ignition coils or bad spark plugs show their face in different ways, which some are easier to diagnose than others. Some of these symptoms are:
- Rough Idle
- Random Cylinder Misfires
- Stalling
- Check Engine Light
- Fault Codes P0300-P0306
- Reduced Power Output
- Reduced Fuel Efficiency
Typically, you start to see the symptoms of failing ignition system components between 50,000 to 100,000 miles. Spark plugs should be replaced by 60,000 miles, and your ignition coils should replaced every other spark plug replacement.
