I'm having issues with the 350SDL. Blowing significant amounts of white smoke. Good to keep tailgaters a bay, not so good otherwise. #4 injector is nailing. Checked and cleaned the injector. No change. Replaced the injector no change. Compression is good. Replaced the fuel filters. Replaced the air filter. I'm speculating I'm getting low pressure from the IP. Which brings me to the need for an indy as digging into the IP is beyond my time constraints, ability and patience.

Thanks.

I posed/bumped this same question here.

Let us know if you find anyone.

I went to the MB dealership off 494, near Normandale avenue a couple weeks ago, and was not impressed (at least not by their Saturday crew).

I watched in disbelief while one of the techs told a well-dre$$ed lady to fix the broken plastic piece of her ignition key with scotch tape.

All I wanted was to ask about getting a 250km grill badge - they didn't know what I was talking about...

So when the day comes and there's a problem with my car that I can't handle myself, I know where NOT to take it. I shudder that I seriously considered dropping $56k on a new CDI at that place

If you find anyone good, please post!

I typically go to Sears Imports when all else fails, they have a few guys who know the diesels. You'll pay for it though.

Thanks!
