300td wagon issues...

Hey guys, new to the merc diesel. I have a few issues

The cranks and runs. when I drive and pull over, let's say to the gas station, once I turn the car off it take multiple cranks/tries to get the car to start again. If I turn it off and let it set for a while, almost like cooling off, it cranks right up? Any ides?

Second, the car is way slow on the start, I know these guys are fast but it almost like the tranny isn't in first gear. It takes awhile to get going but once it goes it goes well. Is there an issue with my tranny?


Oil is leaking like crazy.,valve cover seems ok, I need to clean but curious if the oil pan on these things leak..need to do more research on this..


Sls doesn't work, the bags leak, does that mean I need new struts? I don't want to pay 300 per side..what are my options if any? Thank you for your help.
