Question

How do you stop the engine oil going to the engine computer from the cam position sensor on a merc 210 E Class?
Mercedes Benz say that its a common problem and you need to change the engine wire harness and the computer. Is there any way with cleaning or modifying the wire harness and the cam position sensor to cut costs rather than replacing the entire wire harness?

Answer 1

the harness can be untapped and wires cleaned with brake-clean spray and re taped leaving open sections sections at low points in the harness for drains. the cam sensor connector boot can be modified with a drain tube [straw from a can of carb cleaner] the computer disconnect and computer terminals can be cleaned with "lectrosolve" of course the sensor will have to be replaced.
you know this is the sort of crap that you expect from british cars [they stay dry now] mercedes has really slipped they need to stand down and take a good look at themselves and where they are "headead" as a manufacturer

Answer 2

go to the dealer and buy the updated version of this sensor .
this will stop oil entering the engine module
