Engine Performance problem
2000 Other Mercedes Benz Models 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 112K miles

Collected bad fuel & engine went into limp mode soon after, Changed Spark Plugs & Leads, Fuel cleaner additive used twice, EFU system clean out. Engine still goes into limp mode at around 5000rpm, any suggestions will be helpfull as this is getting very frustrating, Thanks Ryan

If poor fuel has been run in the engine you may have damaged the O2 sensors. If these are showing irradic readings it will cause the vehicle to go into limp home mode to protect the engine and catalytic converter.
