Or also a build up of carbon on the top of the piston from not driving enough to warm up the engine every time. One 300d that I got had that problem and cleared up quite nicely after it was blown out on a couple of one hour drives. Don't know how to tell one problem from the other so just got lucky on that one. MG Frederick Moir via Mercedes wrote: Fwiw. If the oil pressure is good, a loud knocking could be a plugged injector.
