No foam cover now does not mean it never had one. Are you saying the foam cover has nothing to do with the black death in your car because it does not have one?

I saw remnants of the foam, and I suspect the dealer I bought the car from left out/threw away the foam or what was left of it when I had them take a photo.

Clamp bolt torque spec
I left the bolt torquing till last for two reasons. I have not found a definitive torque spec, and I didn't have the proper torque wrench until yesterday. Although I am sure the initial torque is 7 nm, I am not sure if it is then one 90deg. turn or two. I have read a few threads on the subject, and some say that MB spec is two 90deg. turns after the 7, and most others say only one. I think I will be safe and only do the one, but would like some input on this. Also, I had to buy an inch pounds torque wrench, as my other one does not go down to 7 nm. Does anyone know what 7 nm is in inch pounds? My wrench will go 20-200 inch pounds, so I figure it will be more accurate than a foot pounds torque wrench will be....... Rich

1 newton meter equals 8.85 inch pounds. 7 nm = apx. 62 in-lbs. or just a hair over 5 ft-lbs.

Thanks for posting. Those engine covers look purty, but can hide many sins, so smart you had them remove it for photos. It looks like a fairly straight-forward fix, so surprised the dealer shied away. They must have seen it before. Perhaps they were afraid that the head might be damaged.
I don't know CDI's, and neat you are digging in. Any idea what pressure that "common-rail" fuel supply manifold runs at? I have heard such new diesels typically run ~20,000 psig. If true, is isn't surprising that leaks are common. I understand that Fiat developed the technology (and also gas direct-injection) and M-B and others license it. Gave Fiat the cash to buy Chrysler.

Imagine if Mercedes used a foam that is resistant to diesel fuel and heat, there would not the plaque of CDI Black Death.

The TDM has a typo apparently (it lists stage two twice!), so I double checked the current service info online. There are in fact two 90° turns for the injector clamp bolt. Tighten to 7Nm (stage 1), 90° (stage 2) & 90° again (stage 3). The torque spec for the high pressure injector line nut is 23Nm (single stage). |

I got the parts today that finish the job, and got the car running. Everything looks great, except for a fault code of "open circuit glow plug #2". I found that it is broken off in the head:

I made a fixture to hold a dummy plug. It seems to work just fine, and now I can get the car smogged.

I guess with the black death, you and the dealer could not see the broken glow plug before you bought the car?

I bought the car without looking at it with my own eyes. I only saw photos. I did not even drive it. If I did, I might have known about other problems (however minor they might be). The car was headed for the auction, so no work was done on it other than a detail job. If I did not ask them to look for black death, the car might have been sold at a much higher price. Seeing the black death brought the price way down. A broken glow plug was not even on their radar (or mine).
