Hard to say 'it caused a risk of fire, and it had less than 200,000 miles on it'. I'd assume the average failure point is way beyond MBZ's responsibility. The 94-99 E300Ds were OM606, that's the OM603 from the 87 300D and the 86-87 SDL, but with a 24v head on it. The 98-99 cars were turbocharged and intercooled, the last and the best of the indirect injection engines. And the earliest CDIs (05-06) were also inline 6, I don't know if they share any architecture with the 603. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
