The other day when working on my dad's W211 CDI220 (fitted with the OM646 EVO engine) I noticed a mist coming from the area near the oil breather, when the engine was idling. I removed the oil breather pipe and a grey mist was then pumping out of the oil breather at quite a high pressure...

Hi, on my last CLK I had an oil leak on the cam cover which I had repaired, on buying another CLK the paperwork shows the cam cover was leaking and again it was repaired. My question is it a problem with M112 engines, Well I wouldn't say it's a problem, just a PITA. Many Thanks.

Just got a knock on my door by my neighbours who spotted liquid under my car. Opening the engine, it appears I can see blue liquid sitting on silver box, just behind the radiator fan. I'm no expert, but I think the hose just above the silver unit goes to the radiator. I have attached a...
