The Haynes manual is almost laughable and the FSM is well, the FSM.
I value the the various online discussion forums, but would really like to find a clear, concise compendium of troubleshooting regarding these cars
I want to know if anyone has purchased :
Mercedes Diesel Engine Advanced Fault Diagnostic Manual by Kent Bergsma

And if so is it well thought out and well written?
It seems he has several mini-manuals regarding different car systems and this is a collection of those.
EVERYTHING printed by THAT website, is printed copies from the FSM... really.
I'd like to know what's bad about the fsm in your opinion? aside from the scarcity of the printed copies, and the poor quality of the cd copies' images... they are very very very informative manuals for the repair and maintenance of the mb vehicle.
