My mechanic looked after the car for the previous owner. He checked
out everything and in the shop it starts every time.
Valves were done by him, the glow plugs fine. He's baffled!
He said I may have to take it into Mercedes to have them run
diagonstics on it.
Is there anything else before I take it to them?
If you are talking about the starting problem it is either fuel (pump,
filters, algae etc), electrical (battery, relay, glow plugs, block heater
etc.) or mechanical(vacuum, valves, worn rings etc.) . Based on the re****t
of a battery drain problem I would certainly fix the problem or replace
the
battery before I took it to the stealer****p.
