Can anyone tell me if a modified multi plug and wiring loom is available for a 320 CDI. this loom connects the G/box to the control unit and aparently allows oil to travel from the G/box into the control unit which in turn results in having to replace this unit at great cost? regards AA

hey hello you really dont need to replace this unit..the ecu.. it can be removed and cleaned I've just done mine and fitted a new multiplug ..fairly straightforward.. gotta wait until tomorrow..monday for new oil.. I drained my box and will probably have to get it set up on the MB star computer..if u need more info leave a message on here
BTW I didnt fit a new loom dried and cleaned mine out..multi plug is £4.00.. and new ecu is £700 so its a last resort
