Dear all,
I have just purchased a 2010 R class 350cdi (1st gen) with 77k miles with an oil leak located on o/s the cam chain cover seal see picture. My local mechanic (non MB specialist) doesn't want to undertake the repair. I haven't come across this sort of leak on any MB forums, so I could do with your expert knowledge to find out if it desperately needs doing, and if so, if it looks like an impossibly expensive job to do.
Many thanks
