1999 Mercedes-Benz A-Class review from Tanzania
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have a A160 Mercedes with registration T 169 AUA - Last week when I was driving on an uphill at 160 km/hour speed, the "F" fault appeared on the dashboard in 5th gear. Once stopped it went into the other gear, but kept jumping back to "F". Went to a friend who is a mechanic by professional, but could not find a fault/solution.
I have try stalling the engine without any success, so I decided to keep her as it and find someone to buy her since I have completely lost faith on her, I like the car but that âFâ in drive position got me off mood!!
