Enhance loss

[WhisperingWillow]

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum. I own a 2012 C250 AMG with 80,000 miles. My vehicle entered limp mode yesterday.

While attempting to overtake on the freeway, I experienced a lack of power, and the engine management light illuminated. Do you have any suggestions on where to begin my investigation?
Potential boost pipe issue

It is necessary to read the fault codes and inspect the boost pipes for any splits.

Indeed, diagnostic codes are essential; potential issues may encompass turbo malfunctions, boost leaks, MAF sensor failures, DPF complications, or EGR system faults. Absent these codes, one is left to conjecture.
C250 AMG? Laughing out loud. The sole C AMG produced at that period was the C63.

It is an AMG line, nothing remarkable, my friend.

The line is thereafter presented in W205 configuration.


Some are designated as AMG Sport on the V5C, while others are not labelled at all.

The quintessential acid experience is encountering an individual who would wager their life that their vehicle is an AMG.

Indeed, they exist; in this instance, it was a 350 CGI, albeit naturally aspirated and fairly rare. He was convinced it was supercharged due to its AMG designation.

The individual who sold it to him deserves an accolade; he likely paid a premium for it as well. 😂

My vehicle is a Sport model, equipped from the factory with AMG wheels, mats, bumpers, and sills; however, it is not an AMG. Only vehicles designated with two-digit identifiers, such as C63, E63, C43, and A45, should bear the AMG badge. No AMG badge should be present on three-digit models like E350, ML270, or C250; if they do, they are not factory-issued.
