I don't think any other brand would have done that, so assuming the issue won't come back I'm done complaining.
This is good.

What was the final determination as to why this was happening?

That they "think" it was the diesel and that the diesel messed with the sensors. That sounds to me like they've tried different things and they don't know what the fix was. They've sent the diesel in to have it checked by a lab, maybe that will clear things up. They filled the tank at a gas station they trust which is 20 minutes away, that's where I'll go for now.

I hope you have reached the end and all is working now. I have really enjoyed my ML350BT, I hope you do too.

Just curious, did the tachometer fluctuate with the 'bucking'?
