I've heard crankshaft sensor problems mentioned on car shows in connection with other brands. Sensor suppliers should be subject to more stringent quality control and statistical process control enforced by auto makers.

The E320 CDI is now a world record holder. The advanced V6 set world record times over 50,000 miles, 60,000 miles and 100,000 miles, without technical difficulties.

A feat like this doesnt happen overnight. Altogether, it took 30 days for three cars to cover a total of 300,000 miles The average speed of the three cars over their 100,000 miles continuous test at a high-speed circuit in Laredo, Texas was 139.699 mph.

Mercedes Diesel cars are as reliable as they get.

Mercedes already had it tough trying to get their diesels through state-level emissions regulations, and now this. Regardless of any personal feelings on the matter, this is not good for them.

Xero was just aping EL34, only EL34 only mentions this when an Asian brand has a recall not an American or European brand has a recall.

Why is the surprise here, the problems that I've had with my German cars in the past are the type Ford produces.
Truly German cars although look nice and drive nice but they're junk and especially the diesel.
