its been at a "service center" in denver.. The MB Dealer has been trying to fix it for the past 4 weeks.. First they claimed the turbo was out, they replaced and 5 miles away from the dealer the CEL was on.... Had it towed back - after 3 weeks now the engine has "no compression"...
Wondering if this Denver MB Dealer has a clue.....
I'm a small business- 10K for a new engine is out of the question.. Tonight I have been trying to research my options.... I am looking at options:
#1: buy a crashed unit with a 2.7 and low miles and take my chances - drop it in myself.. ( I am an RV mechanic - I dont do engines but can do it.....) ?? Not sure of "programming" requirements....
#2: I have scanned our forum: Check with Dr a or ...??? other guy for a rebuilt ... ( I like this the best - I have a shop, engine hoist, major tools and could coax 1 of then to come to Colorado...????? I have camping space......
#3: MB dealer : My cost w/o taxes is 9821 for a rebuilt..... Includes seals, fluids, ect....
#4 ...??????
Thoughts...
