Just limped home. Received P0300 p0301 p0302 and pending p0701.

Question

Car sat for 10 minutes. Cleared codes. Engine started 3 times with no problems. Any ideas? Problem first started sitting in heavy traffic, E320 1998 Mercedes Wagon 203K, used transmission at 198K
Have not driven since clearing the codes. Will do that in the morning. Just glad the car made it over the Bay Bridge and got me home :)

Answer 1

P0300 Random misfire

P0301 Misfire number 1 cylinder

P0302 Misfire number 2 cylinder

P0701 Transmission control range / performance

The misfire is the concern, with the misfire which is a catalyst damaging will result in fuel injector shut down, this is to protect the catalytic from damage, Without the full engine power and being a electronic throttle actuator Pending a transmission code is expected. The ECM went into emergency running mode function. You do not have a transmission problem. Resolve the misfire. Misfire can be from ignition system to fuel injector or even over filled motor oil.
