One thing to consider is if the weather gets down 10 degrees below freezing, the SDL can be a very hard car to start without plugging it in. If anyone mentions glow plugs, I have replaced mine twice. It never helped. The other day, it was -20C, and I started my S320 like nothing without plugging it in.
