E220 CDI & Bio Diesel?
Greetings,
New to the forum, recently traded my C class for a 2006 (reg nov. 05) model E220cdi Elegance (with particle filter + gadget list from here to nirvana, er... almost). Good deal, car was almost unused from MB in Germany. Extremely satisfied with it but have some questions, maybe someone has answers?
Searching on the web and/or here on this forum, reading some articles, am still slightly in the blue as to whether or not this model will run on Bio Diesel? Where I live (Oslo, NO) concept still has some way to go, distribution etc.
Anyhow, doing some light weight research I came across a couple of presentations. here>> and here>>. While they may provide some good info, didn't fully answer my question so..
There were some talks about the test being conducted without the particle filter, which could indicate car would run but without this filter if using Bio Diesel.
Any input/info appreciated, thanks in advance
