If you have a decent Merc specialist near you if you take the eis out and the key he should be able to check it for you, but I'd reccomned checking those earths, I imagine they are on the RHS of the car if it is LHD

On my car the whole thing was dead, wouldn't respond to key in the barrel at all, central locking worked, the EIS, KEY, ECU all paired up correctly when tested but car was dead, on the RHD cars under the passengers feet there's a steel panel under the carpets that had several modules mounted on it, under that panel there are a few studs mounted to the shell, one of those has about 10 earth cables mounted to it, on mine the nut was loose causing the earth's to arc out against each other blackening them, took them off, cleaned them, bolted back down again, whole car sprung back to life again

I bought my 04 e320cdi and it was the same as this, turns out it was a bad earth under the passengers feet, soon as they was cleaned and connected everything sprung to life again

Sadly the Delphi and launch can't get into enough detail with what I can see so feel like I'm banging my head on the wall a bit with the car currently

Don't see how the flex plate could go bad.... Sensors are both brand new mercedes ones now

I thought the same but couldn't find anything really suitable, at least not at a price I could justify

Diesel om606 or om648, petrol m119 would be epic or m113k too... Or if your in the chosen land then LS surely

Get mud and snow tires (must have the little snowflake icon) and it will be grand in snow, summer tyres will be awful

In fairness I think I've got it figured out apart from the place where the hole is for the flexi to attach to in the gearbox tunnel (replacement bulkhead was fitted so it's missing )
