Hi, Ive just bought a 2k GLE w/ 64K miles last Wed., after not driving the car for a while (ie. leaving over nite), when i start the car it jus keeps cranking and cranking and has a hard time actually starting unless it give it gas. Even after its started up, during the warm up or the first 10-15 mins of driving the car would stall out or the idle would jump btwn 500 & 1500 rmp resulting in the car jerking. I thought it just needed a tune up cuz the SES light was on, which I did yesterday, the error code was 0115, something doing with "Engine Temp." after the tune up and reseting the code it was fine. But like before, I parked the car over nite, and when i went to start it, it started fine, but with the SES light back on along with the SLIP & TCS OFF lights, within 2 mins of warming the car up, it stalled out.

Please help a newbie...

 

Sounds like it may have been overheated?!? Really strange...

 

a weak battery can always make things go wacky....
go to sears or any auto store. they should be able to test your batterys voltage. that would give it a hard time cranking. OR if you're stalling out while on, could be an alternator issue. all guesses until more tests are made.

 

How about the error code 0115, is anyone familar with dat?
And what does the "SLIP" light mean?

 

If you got a intake air or coolant sensor that has pooped out.
Then you may not have the right injector pulse for the rich mixture to fire up the beast. Clues to this are having to give it some throttle opening and erratic behavior till it warms up.

 

How bout the SLIP light? and i cant seem to turn the TCS back on.

Thx
