    GL320 CDI lots Fuel leaking on the ground from back of engine above the transmission

    I take it the engine is an OM 642 so the fuel filter is in the V so that would be the first place to look . You'll have to remove the intake from the turbo to get at the fuel filter .

    W211 E320 CDI Glow Plug Light staying on after start up

    If you're blowing fuses inside the relay that would seem to indicate that one of the glow plugs is shorting to earth . Or if the plugs are really OK then it must be the wiring from the relay to the plugs that's shorting out.

    E320 terrible cold starting

    It's nearly always the relay and that looks like the original so replace it and your car will start like new , I fitted a new one on my ML 320 many years ago , fixed the problem.

    B class engine knocked after aux belt frayed and got sucked into engine

    My best guess from the evidence supplied is that bits of the frayed fan belt got between the cam belt and the toothed pulley and caused it to jump a couple of teeth , valves bumping to pistons end of story QED

    E350 2010 Struggles to start when cold

    I really can't see how a thermostat will affect cold starting , the operative word being cold , it obviously needs changing but won't affect starting.

    E350 2010 Struggles to start when cold

    I thought the plugs were supposed to stay on on the 642 engine so I would suspect the relay to be faulty which is common at that age . Used to be about £120+ have a look on ebay
