    Hay need help have an mbe4000 in a 07 classic, check engin light came on and de-rated replaced the EGR then the engine harnes, I took it to detroit and they said to check all grounds. Well ten hours later my AC and CB work great but still get a check engine light. If any one has had this problem let me know how you repaird it, also had the v pod checked and the fan as well as the VCM ECM Yhanks

    well got it fixed, went back to the start I got a bad EGR but I listend to my freightliner dealer and wasted 2 weeks and a #### load of cash but if you have an 07 classic check your harnes were it passes the compresser and also the altiater cabels under the back of the engin as they were very badly worn and shorting on the mount, as well as the remote starter wires from the starter.

    mbe4000 do not have a droop setting like a s60 try some injector cleaner then a valve set also check to see if your regulater to the turbo actuater is leaking, but never let it drop past 1750 rpm on a pull or you will have to get out and push it up the hill. remember the mbe4000 is a high rpm motor, I run the rock pile IE highway though hell and the rockies and it pulls, but not like a 600

    ps my spelling sucks
