Afternoon guys and girls
I have a 2011 Smart Passion CDI which started running rough at the start of the month, this later turned into a delayed start etc, now it takes it time to start but then when up and running runs fine after first minute of rough idle.
Mercedes have checked everything and have diagnosed it as contaminated fuel, I have always filled it up at my local Shell with V power on every second tank.
Mercedes have told me that the fuel is orange, I can find the reciepts of which I filled with as it goes nowhere else. Mercedes have told me that they will not cover this under warrenty and need to strip out the injectors, filter, fuel lines and tank and clean so its looking pricey.
Where would I look for the financial side of it?
Any comments welcome.
