This car came from Florida (with 8,000 miles on it) and did not have the Bluetec option, but it's still very touchy emissions-wise.

But, I appreciate all the information and will be looking into what's up.
I don't see any non-Bluetec E-class diesels for the 2008 model year:

Which engine does yours have? The inline 6 or V6? What does it say on the trunk lid?

If you do decide to go to the dealer, make sure you don't have any bio in your tank, even traces of it. You warranty is intact unless they find out you ran bio or bad fuel.
