The dieselgate recall. My 2010 C250 CDi has been recalled.

I think I’ll be holding back until reports start to appear. If power/economy are affected, despite Merc’s promises, I won’t want it.

Anyone else received the letter?
Anyone with the OM651 engine had it done?

[Tony1963]

Thank you.

[Tony1963]

Again, thank you.

The car has been with me since new, but has been away from the main dealer network since my annual mileage dropped to 8K from 32k miles. I’ve three decent indies within 5 miles, so all is well really.

Is Alex Crow one of the indy's ?

Yes!

[Tony1963]

That’s good to hear. He’s recommended highly by a couple of friends.

He has got a couple of 25 year or so old Mercs as courtesy cars as well, built like tanks.

I had a G plate SE500 from Derrick Wells once, bloody loved it, did nothing but smile. But he has learned how to charge since then, so Alex Crow is who I’ll be going to next.

Yes, he was charging almost main dealer prices the last time I had a quote from him, and I have heard a few not so complimentary comments about his customer service in recent times

You will be more than happy with Alex.

It’s a real shame the way that D Wells has gone. I’m wondering whether he’s feathering his retirement nest.

Has anybody signed up yet for one of the class actions being touted ?

I have, but after registering, it has all gone quiet.
