I had a very similar problem with my mbe but mine was the EGR and the EGR cooler that were clogged on the inside , when the mechanic took it all apart he said he's never seen any thing like that before , he deals mostly with MBE engines so he's seen it all.i had all that replaced and now it runs like the day I bought it...perfect
