E420 Diesel

  • miles
My car is presently in the shop for the third time with a major fuel leak. Each time has been for a different leak. The repairs have not been done by a Mercedes however replacement part have been purchase from Mercedes and my repairer has been told that diesel leaks are not uncommon in these models. This is my third Mercedes diesel and this is the first time I have ever had this problem. Certainly this seems to be to be a fire hazard.
