Think I have the W211 V6 problem a few people have reported with my 2009 E320 CDi estate. :mad: where the exhaust manifolds break down and get sucked into turbo, causing jerking on flooring and requiring both replacement of manifolds and turbo. Car has done 90k miles and wont be covered by any warranty. Does anyone know the approximate cost of this work at an independent garage? Not going to be cheap, but surely I can get it done cheaper than the £2-3K that people have mentioned on other threads. Please...:confused:
 
I doubt the manifolds are going to be an issue. Its is not that common.

You may need just a new turbo. Get it diagnosed first before you do anything.
 
Thanks - that's encouraging. Have booked it in for next week for diagnostics, etc. so fingers crossed!
 
Im just wondering what engines have this apparent "common" problem.

Is there a list ?

:)
