ok...instead of spending 75 at MB stealership i went to local autozone.

The pulled the codes and this is what it said:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
TROUBLECODE OBDII (ALPHA0 P CODE

TROUBLESHOOTING P00441
The PCM has determined that the purge flow in the evaporative emission control system is incorrect for the current operating conditions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The people at autozone told me that i need a Purge Valve!!!

NOW...someone please break it easy to me and tell me what that is, and how much will it cost!!!! :bored:

In my case it was the mass sensor. Dealer replaced under warranty.

N/M what I just said, I just assumed it was the charcoal canister. Please call your service guy to clarify.
