@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair say I deleted the flaps from the intakes. Theoretically speaking, would I need to tune the ECM to read expected MAF and such? Runner still attached to swirl actuator.

Nice video. Your old videos helped me diagnosed my 2015 MB 2.1L sprinter. Dealership kept wanting to throw parts at it and overcharge me without truly finding the problem. I found the culprit switch over check valve wasn't holding vacuum. I kept getting code P0299. All lines/intercooler/hoses were checked. Even smoked tested the cold side. No more codes after replacing both change over check valves. I even replaced both transducers while I was at it. Van runs great
@performancejunky3258 Perform power supply check of coolant pump switchover valve to make sure you have atleast 12.5volts. Check signal wire between switchover and CDI to make sure ohms are within spec less than 1 Ohm. Connect vacuum guage between switchover valve and coolant pump to make sure it is greater than or equal to 800 mbar. You would want to do same procedure to 2nd air/smog switchover valve that is near the throttle body if you have the 4cyl 2.1L diesel like I have. Also you can pinch off the supply lines to the transducers individually to verify if the transducer are holding vacuum at 800 mbar for +10 minutes. Lastly check all vacuum lines and brake booster for any leaks also.
@performancejunky3258 lastly make sure you water pump vacuum line that run to the front switchover valve is not leaking coolant in the line as that would me your whole vacuum system may be contaminated and bad water pump. I don't apply no more than 10 in. HG on the vacuum guage. It will not hold any vacuum pressure if the seal is blown on the water pump. My other code was P245B which was my EGR bypass valve fails to operate. So I also kinda narrow it down to the secondary air/smog switchover valve. Hope this all helps.
Thank you for another OM642 video. The fault code states the runner control is stuck closed, but the flaps are in the fully open position. What am i misunderstanding here please?
@Nick-bp7jf Great Question I believe when the fault first occurred the flaps were closed but over time with boost pressure and carbon build up it's possible to have them move just a little or that perhaps that position is interpreted by the ECM as Closed!
I have the OM642 engine in 2007 W211 Mercedes. I have code P2013, intake manifold runner control circuit high bank 2. Does it mean I have to replace the actuators and swirl flap motor? I just have check engine light on and the car drives good.
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair darn it. Well when I’ll tackle this monster of a job I’ll do the oil cooler as well…and belt, pulleys, belt tensioner. I think you have to rotate the engine to have the valves closed to prevent all the soot falling inside the engine… I don’t know … Thank you for the response! Nobody was able to confirm this code for me
Is it possible to repair and service the intake manifold.? There seems to be a lot of varnish, gunk in the passageways and spindle, so if the manifold is cleaned by dipping in a bath of soluble cleaner. At the factory, the spindle, flaps and linkages were assemble from outside in to the manifold, so is there no way to dismantle these parts for cleaning?🌼
There’s a way to take the flaps out-but putting them back in, not so much. Cleaning them is a 50/50. The linkage to the flaps can get gunked up with the residual, and can seize again. Generally, buy new intakes or just delete them. That’s what I did.
I bought a swirl motor bypass module to erase the codes. Apparently this system is only used when the vehicle is idling to reduce emissions. It was a 300 dollar fix and took 10 minutes. I am not sure if its legal to do in all the states. But there were no laws prohibiting us from doing it in where I live.
Any time you gotta take the intakes off these, the oil cooler should obviously be serviced. No point getting all that out to let that fail and have to do it all again anyway.
Hi kit great channel, wondering if you can offer me any advise please, I have a vito w447 2018 with om651 twin turbo engine have low boost limp mode fault Fault codes p0299 p2261 p004c00 I have changed the two boost transducers & cross over valves Inc both boost sensors with no difference,carried out smoke test with no obvious leaks Have also tested both turbo actuators with hand held vac pump both hold vacuum No play in turbo shaft Really confused at this point What could be causing low boost ?
Great content, 👍 but bad engine design. Is there a way that you help the customer out by making a no part required by CLEANING those runner in diesel and make them working again instead of buying expensive OEM parts..😢
These engines collect a lot of carbon in the intake manifold. This causes the flaps to stick. Also it is possible for the actual linkage to wear and cause issues.
Deo, there is no greater man than he who shares knowledge.
We love you!
@abderrahimmark Thank you my Friend! I love you back!
More sprinter videos needed!

Hi kit great channel, wondering if you can offer me any advise please, I have a vito w447 2018 with om651 twin turbo engine have low boost limp mode fault
Fault codes p0299 p2261 p004c00
I have changed the two boost transducers & cross over valves
Inc both boost sensors with no difference,carried out smoke test with no obvious leaks
Have also tested both turbo actuators with hand held vac pump both hold vacuum
No play in turbo shaft
Really confused at this point
What could be causing low boost ?
@performancejunky3258 check the charge air cooler and hoses, sometimes a smoke test can fail to find leaks that are caused by higgh boost pressures!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair
Thanks, would a faulty dpf/cat cause low boost ?

These engines collect a lot of carbon in the intake manifold. This causes the flaps to stick. Also it is possible for the actual linkage to wear and cause issues.
@Nick-bp7jf I know I work on these engines I just wanted you to explain it to your audience.
@Nick-bp7jf I agree with what you said! thanks
Thats not the problem the egr is the problem always will be
@stevehvac1 EGR Valves can cause issues too but in this case the issue wasn't the EGR Valve
