Mercedes E320 CDI FUEL LEAK 210 model 2001

[Mercedes cozy]

I have a friend who has a Mercedes E320 CDI (210) on a 2001 and his car leaks diesel from a valve.

As per link its parts number 49.

I believe the valve to be faulty. But does anyone know what this valve does and how it may have become faulty?
The car has only done 65K.

I have checked MB and they don't even have the part nor does Germany.
They said it would be a special order part.

the valve is the fuel shut off valve ive seen lots of these leak
you can not get them on there own you will need the fuel line which in the picture is no35 easy to fit it goes under the pump onto the side
hope this helps

Thanks AMGboy.

So this part seems to be a common problem.

yes that leak
you can not get on own so new pipe needed
might be worth getting the clip no107 which sits under the pump as well brake easy the job is abit fidderly to do

Ok cheers, any idea on the rough cost of the parts and how long would it take to change once the top covers are off?

 

[AMGBoy]

rough cost £15 for pipe and clip
half hour to fit give or take afew mins

Sorted, will order part and get it fitted as soon as, otherwise the smell of diesel is coming through the interior vents.

Had one of these leak on an ML one time i thought it was for connecting something to if the car had run out of fuel, to get her bled.

would suggest you get him to change all pipes its the o rings that leak on the pipes make sure they are grey rubber not black the grey ones are up graded and fuel resistant .
will get a air lock when changing them and need a air hose to pull the fuel through

I had a go yesterday, managed to change the pipe, it took me about an hour because a small clip in front of the engine that hold one of the pipes.

All done completed sorted and no leaks. :bannana:
