Got Myself an E320cdi 2000 Model six weeks ago, all going well till I got up this morning to find a small patch of diesel. The things that are running through my head are... 1. Diesel Pump Gone. 2. High low pressure fuel lines.
3. Fuel Injector leaking. In Glasgow it was -2 last night and i have a funny feeling something has split in the cold snap. Would appreciate any help! Thanks Guys!

Diesel leaks are common as muck, and usually failed o-rings.

Run your fingers under the fuel components, starting from the top. Keep feeling downwards until your fingers get wet.
