Launch Vehicle Information, Mercedes Benz
Permalink  
 


Does anyone know how to identify or know what Launch uses on it's vehicle application pages:  Engine type is determined - how? Engine is determined how?  Example 2005-2009 A Class, Chassis W169 engine type is listed as MESFI,   Engine is listed as DCTS34 where do you find this info ... called the Bez dealer they do not know

The ME-SFI  is the engine management system (computer designation), check its (control unit) location and look for identity #s.  In our case we have version 9.7

On Launch's engine listing this is the coding for what the Launch will accomplish, had nothing to do with the engine on the car

the engine should be a m266 that is stamped on the block also using the x431 it will say 169 as the VIN decode then the engine is the next 169.***


this number CDTS34 you have here is the short abbreviation on what is covered in the KEY for the edu on MESFI
C =DTC
D = Data Display
T = Actuation Test
S =Indicates special function present, but detail items are not listed

MESFI(169)
S34 Activate fuel pump
S34 Learning of the throttle valve stop
S34 Resetting of mixture adaptation
S34 Ignition
S34 Fuel quantity
S34 Idle speed set value
S34 Electric suction fan for engine or air conditioning

hopefully this clears this up
