Hard to start
my '06 E320 CDI with 46,000 miles has been hard to start these cold mornings. so far the MB dealership has:
1. replaced the fuel filter
2. checked the fuel pump
and have, just today told me that from instruction of MBenz Germany to put a liquid additive mix into the gas (diesel) tank; and tomorrow morning will once again test/start the car. and just to note, the battery was replaced only a month ago also under warranty. in other words, even their master mechanic is stumped not knowing what the cause of the hard starting is.
time to get rid of the car????
help!
