Hello my fellow merc owners, hope you are all in good health
I recently had my 03' E270CDi in for an inspection at Mercedes. They told me it had a turbo oil leak and would cost £2000 to replace. Something about having to take the whole turbo unit out and open it and replace some seals (not the eck eck sea creatures). Anyway I your having a giraffe.
I am gonna take it to MercsOnly in West London. The person I spoked to said they cannot open the turbo unit up and it would need a complete replacment. Personally I always seemed to get people trying it, from the time Mercedes damaged my paintwork to lying about both ball joints needing replacing. Therefore, I weary of beleiving anything these technicians say.
Has anyone experienced a turbo oil leak and how long it is before it can become critical. And any other advise.
cheers people
thanks for you help
