Hi I have a Mercedes Benz c 180 elegance kompressor 2006.
The car has 195 0000 km on the clock and all its services
Up to date 2 days ago while driving it lost acceleration and
If you switch it of and start it again it does not want to rev
Over 4 000 rpm. I took it to Mercedes for a diagnostics and the find
Nothing wrong. On the way home it was driving fine 2 days after that I was stuck with the
Same problem. What can be the cause for my car not having all the
Acceleration like before and why does it not want to rev over
4000 rpm and the out of the blue it is fine again

Since theres no codes according to Mercedes id have to say that you've got a mechanical issue, possibly with the turbo. If you can get the intake tube off and see the impellor, then try to wiggle it. If theres play then youll probably need a new one. If not, then you may have a sticking waste gate or variable intake actuator causing the turbo to choke. Id go to another dealer next time as this one has shown a lack of interest as you have a very prevalent problem
