I had a post a while back about a check engine light that come on intermittently. Well, finally, I had a chance today to go and get it checked out on an OBDII scanner. There are a lot of problems.
Here are the codes that were pulled:
P0130
O2 Sensor
Circuit Malfunction
(Bank 1 Sensor1)
P0161
O2 Sensor Heater
Circuit Malfunction
(Bank 2 Sensor 2)
P0301
Cylinder 1
Misfire Detected
P0304
Cylinder 4
Misfire Detected
P0303
Cylinder 3
Misfire Detected
P0300
Random/Multiple
Cylinder
Misfire Detected
DTC Pending (codes)
P0135
O2 Sensor Heater
Circuit Malfunction
(Bank 1 Sensor 1)
So that about sums it up. I want to fix this myself. What should I do? Where do I get started? Should I just take it to the dealer?
Also, for some reason, the windows go down and the doors unlock themselves randomly when it is parker and locked. The doors also unlock themselves sometimes when I'm driving and hit a bump.
If anyone has any suggestions please get back to me they would be greatly appreciated.
The car is a 1999 C43 AMG with 97k on the clock.
I worked on all my previous cars, but have not done anything on this one as of today. I can do a reasonable amount of work, but if there is a chance I could really screw up my car, I would rather take it to the dealer. Otherwise, I like to think that I am competent.
Thank you!!
