  1. 5 WARNING SIGNS YOUR MERCEDES EXHAUST BACK PRESSURE SENSOR IS FAILING

  2. Mercedesyou own is a high-end luxury car If you want such a pricey vehicle to perform smoothly, you should ensure its upkeep.

  3. One Mercedes part that often goes unnoticed but can cause significant issues if fail is the Exhaust Back Pressure (EBP) sensor.

  4. The basics of Mercedes’ EBP sensor Go through this presentation to learn Signs of its failure

  5. Exhaust Back Pressure or EBP sensor aids Mercedes cars (diesel) with the following two things Optimizing overall engine performance Reduce emissions Exhaust Back Pressure Sensor: An Intro

  6. It does that by keeping tabs on the pressure of the exhaust gases exiting diesel particulate filter. In other words… EBP tells the engine computer (ECU) how well the exhaust system is working. This data helps optimize engine performance and reduce emissions.

  7. How To Know If Your Mercedes' EBP Sensor Is Failing?

  8. Sign1 -Reduced engine power This is the most obvious indication of EBP sensor failure in Mercedes cars. Inaccurate pressure readings sent to the ECU by a faulty EBP can diminish engine’s power output.

  9. Sign 2 -Bad gas mileage Erroneous data provided by a faulty EBP can destabilize air-to-fuel proportion inside the cylinder. This can result in a sudden drop in the vehicle’s fuel economy.

  10. Sign 3 -Illuminated check engine light An illuminated CEL is a common indication of various issues, including EBP sensor failure. Have the vehicle checked by a professional to get the issue diagnosed promptly.

  11. Sign 4-Rough engine idle

  12. You might also have to deal with erratic idling because of EBP sensor failure. Stalling will also become a common occurrence.

  13. Sign 5 -Increased emissions

  14. A glitch in the EBP can cause the engine to run inefficiently. This may result in higher emissions in your Mercedes.

  15. Summing Up

  16. Data provided by EBP help the engine management computer with many different things A glitch in a sensor of such significance can contribute to an array of performance issues. Fortunately… there are signs you can look for if suspect a glitch in your Mercedes’ EBP sensor.
