Inside the car smells gas either idle or running. Dashboard lights flactuate and sometimes the gas gage doesn't show how much fuel you have left. Command system shuts off after 3 mins even the engine is on. But mainly, the gas smell in the car. Have trouble breathing at times and I don't haveany underlying condition.

P052E: Positive Crankcase Ventilation Regulator Valve Performance. It is available for inspection upon request. It was a problem that was confirmed by two independent service centers. It first appeared at around 30k miles, then the engine light disappeared. At around 40k, it starts to intermittently appears and disappears, most of the time the engine light was off, my mechanics checked at it, said it was not uncommon to see this problem with Mercedes and said it won't affect driving. At around 50k it starts to appear more often, still intermittently. I got a second opinion with another mechanics, was told again that he saw this happening commonly with Mercedes. Crankcase alone cannot be replaced, I'll need to replace the whole thing which part cost 750+, with 1200+ labor at an independent service center, and the local mercedes dealer quote double the price.

I was driving on the street and lost power, I looked down and saw a red transmission message and noticed that my vehicle was in neutral. I hurried, and stepped on the break and put my car in drive. I drove 5 minutes to my destination. A few hours later, as I was leaving my destination, my car did the same thing. I lost power, the red transmission light popped up and my car was in neutral. I noticed it once a few months ago and thought it was minor. As I reflect, I have had a few instances where I was driving and my acceleration was off. I took the streets to the mechanic today and they stated that they could not find anything wrong with the car.
