I don't doubt that the fuel quality is an issue, but how come other manufacturers aren't having the problems that MB is? Look at all the PowerSmokes and their ilk on the road and they seem to be doing fine... Even Chevrolet has the Cruze diesel on the market over here. Maybe MB should ditch that stupid 10K mile OCI, that would certainly help with oil dilution issues.
