Once reason of failure has been eliminated, whole boost system was cleaned and it’s free from any soot or foreign objects we can begin with fitting reconditioned turbocharger. PROBLEM WITH TURBOCHARGERS? SMOKING, LOSS OF POWER?
What should I do if my Mercedes fuel pressure is zero?
If your Mercedes doesn’t start, check the fuel pressure. If you are getting zero reading, you either have an electrical problem or a bad fuel pump. If the check engine light is on, consider yourself “lucky” as it can make your diagnosis easier. Note that not all faults will trigger the check engine light.
Why is my Mercedes ML320 in limp mode?

How to diagnose a boost pressure sensor problem?
When the ECM is operating in this mode, a loss of power will be present, as if the turbocharger was not operating. The best method for diagnosing faults with the boost pressure sensor is with the DRB III scan tool. Refer to the Diesel Powertrain Diagnostic Manual for more information.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING – BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR If the boost pressure sensor fails, the ECM records a DTC into memory and continues to operate the engine in one of the three limp-in modes. When the ECM is operating in this mode, a loss of power will be present, as if the turbocharger was not operating.
